Predictions for tomorrow's Apple event
31 CommentsIt's been a couple weeks, so I thought I'd do a little roundup of my predictions/rumors:
- New design for the iPod Nano (this one)
- iPod price reductions
- 2.1 software on iPod Touch
- iTunes 8.0
- New audio visualization (this one)
- Genius playlist
- Genius sidebar
- Grid view
And lastly, if I had to guess, I'd say iTunes 8.0 looks a little something like this:

I can't bloody wait!! :D
cant wait thanks for the insider info a little bit back :) love diggnation :)
Price reductions sounds good. :)
Not to bothered on iTunes though, was never impressed with it. :(
Awesome! Thanks for the info :)
Looking forward to the new iTunes!
Waiting for 2.1 software. :)
And iTunes that I will be able to use..
What happened to redesigned iPod Touches? Sadness.
I hope we don't have to pay for the 2.1 over iPod Touch.

I am looking forward to the new re-design of Itunes. Even though I just use it as a music playlist player. However thanks for the heads up!
hey kevin,
on the last diggnation, you said that as the days grew more near, you'd let some more rumors or hints out that you knew, as it grew closer to 9/9. i understand that this is new, and could be a hint, but can we have more about the ipod touch?

Curious if Genius will be able to do this with the music on my ipod, not just my library.
Personally all I want right now is my iphone bugs fixed. That's all I ask for. :(
Why do I have the feeling that Kevins idea of a guess is more like. Hey, I've seen a sneak peak because I know a guy who works on it, and this is what its gonna look like. But I have to pretend I haven't seen it so I'm just gonna use the word guess even though my drawing above is incredibly precise.
I'm watching you mister. :)
I'm looking forward to tomorrow
Do you know if they have added the feature to downconvert music files for ALL iPods (like you can for the Shuffle)?
I've ripped my entire music library using Apple Lossless which is great for listening to music through my sound system but I can't fit much on an iPod.
I've never understood why they only offered this feature for the Shuffle.
So are you sayin then... That the iPod Touch is only getting a software upgrade and possible price reduction/storage increase!? No sweet hardware updates, chips!?
I agree with Luke Westlie.
Seriously ... that is it !! compare that to the Zune features and announcements that is being rumored ! (buy from FM, Cloud sync, etc..)
Watch ur back.. ipod !
I'm excited. I want a new nano so bad and it's going to be so cheap like $129.99. I hate using my iPhone as an iPod and a phone for some reason. It's just really strange to me. I don't care what the Zune gets because I can't lol
Leopard and Zune are not compatible. Oh well. Apple still may have some innovative ideas up it's sleeve. I'm pumped for this event for some reason. I don't know why.
Hey Kevin, I'm saying hi to you from a village in Scotland called Digg. Should you hold the next Diggnation there?
