Steve’s group just extended an invitation for media to join his Apple crew on Sept. 5 for a “special event.”

Could it be that all of the iPod-update rumors are true? There is an iPod in the invite. Hmm… Stay tuned and we’ll all find out on Sept. 5.

In the time we have leading up to the announcements, please add in comments what you hope happens with the announcements. You can also read here about iLounge’s ideas on the next-gen iPod offerings.

UPDATE:

• Read the iLounge story on this subject here. Read the AppleInsider story here.
• One of the comments on the iLounge story names all of the albums shown ( Keane, Under The Iron Sea — The Flaming Lips, Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots —Beastie Boys, The Mix-Up — Mika, Life In Cartoon Motion — Jack Johnson, In Between Dreams — Sonic Youth, Rather Ripped)
• Many of the comments, and the AppleInsider authors, hint at more than just iPods – perhaps something to do with the Beatles? (AppleInsider notes that “The beat goes on” is the last line of the Beatles’ last press release.) We’ve seen artist-theme iPods in the past – perhaps Beatles’ iPods? – Check out this article that goes with this suggested Beatles iPod image.
