Jé (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 1:48am

hahaha (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 2:23am

Do you have serious info..or your just intoxicating..people just to make traffic..?

louvre (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 4:22am

Honestly, i really hope this will be out the 4th of September. But i'm affraid you guys are right about the Expo in paris.

macmanager (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 5:39am

Sept 4th, too soon after a holiday.

Sept 11th,....too much bad mojo.

Most likely the 18th.

macmanager (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 5:49am

it will be the 17th, trust me...

Dad's Doctor (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 5:59am

yeah, i really wish my birthday was to 26th as opposed to the 6th, because if i wait for it to come out, it's going to take even longer knowing that i didn't get anything for my birthday yet.

these are the biggest dilemmas of my life.

How bout September 5th, like the rest of the net is saying?

Apple Enthusiest (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 9:51am

Macrumors.com repotrs that it will be september 5th...

Chris (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 10:30am

September 5th (after reading the latest Macrumors post).

macmanager (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 12:31pm

i was personally going for September 23. But Sept 5 is cool, too :D

macmanager (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 4:24pm

it can't be the 5th, because the "free nano with mac" deal isn't up til the 16th i think.

Apple already announced a media event on 9/5 in Cupertino. They can update the iPod lineup before the current promotion ends and exclude the new products..that's what Apple has done in the past (i.e Apple went from 3G to 4G during the back-to-school promotion.)

Bottom line...now would be a really bad time to buy a new iPod.

macmanager (not verified) | August 24, 2007 - 10:17pm

@macpoo Where do you know from? When did they a announce an event on 9/5?

StefoD (not verified) | August 25, 2007 - 5:25am

The great question is
"What will we see on this special event?"
Is it just the nano or the touch?
Both?
Will there be other news besides,
like iTunes 8 or maybe TV&Movies for Europe
or AppleTV/iPhone?

So many questions maybe the admin got
some news about it?!?

Cheers yours StefoD

all we've heard is just ipods

pruppert (not verified) | August 25, 2007 - 11:08am

if its comes out on the fifth, the college students going back to school are apt to buy, or their parents as a going away present, its bound to be a crazy three months for apple w/ imacs, ipods, and leopard

Automatically translated text:

Even in Japan rumor of sale being many in 9/5, the shank.
I increase, new IPOD expecting.

Loonesta (not verified) | August 26, 2007 - 9:52am

I'm all for September 11th - it's time something p-o-s-i-t-i-v-e happened on that date, no?

max (not verified) | August 27, 2007 - 9:52am

I think September 5th is pretty solid, considering that iPod stock is gone at many retailers. There's no way Apple would let stock run down to zero weeks or months before a new iPod, iPods are too important to Apple's revenues.

I'm just waiting for the official press release from Apple, should be this week. How far in advance have the previous 'invites' surfaced?

admin | August 27, 2007 - 12:52pm

it is usually about a week out...so expect one in 3...2...1..

madmax (not verified) | August 28, 2007 - 4:13pm

It's here! (Check engadget)

Germac (not verified) | August 27, 2007 - 2:58pm

5.5Gs are nearly sold out in Germany, no new shippments were confirmed I think. Those buyers might regret that ;)

bad (not verified) | August 28, 2007 - 6:56am

Apple won't announce any new iPod device until their "College Students buy a Mac and get a free iPod nano.*" deal is over.

It ends sept. 16th

bad (not verified) | August 28, 2007 - 6:59am

Also the deal applies to all iPods ( $200 off a nano = free nano, but it can be applied to a video also ). therefore, no new video yet either.

admin | August 28, 2007 - 7:07am

Actually the deal stipulated that a student buy any iPod and get a $199 mail in rebate from Apple. IT works with new ones and old ones alike...

yourxp (not verified) | August 28, 2007 - 8:19am

guess it'll be anytime after september 16.

apple wouldnt want the release to clash with their back to school promo... people would rush to pick the new ipod as the freebie.

JJ (not verified) | August 28, 2007 - 9:23am

Actually, I think the iPod rebate is tied to specific models, with specific serial numbers. So, assuming that the new iPods have unique serial numbers, they wouldn't qualify for the promotion.

Also, I have heard others who know more than me say that Apple did this in the past, announcing new product while the replacement product was part of a rebate promotion. So, they have done it before, and could do it again I suppose.
