Last Tuesday,
Apple sent out invitations to an event that will take place on September 9th in San Francisco. Judging by the illustration, which was accompanied by the invitation, we can conclude that it will be entirely devoted to the presentation of a new line of the world's best players -
iPod . However, it is likely that the
"fruit" company is preparing us and a few surprises.
Let's hold a temporary parallel and refresh the memories of the September
Apple events in recent years.
In 2005, the first
iPod Nano was introduced. Revolutionary thin, working on a flash drive, he quickly gained popularity. At his presentation,
Steve Jobs , well joked that the small pocket on all jeans was made specifically for the
Nano .



In 2006, the company introduced the
iPod Shuffle to the world, a revised and improved
iPod Nano and a new
iPod Video , which was a precursor to the concept of mobile video, which today is being successfully implemented on all
iPods , with the exception of
Shuffle .
Finally, in 2007,
Steve Jobs delighted everyone with the
Apple product user by updating the entire
iPod line.
iPod Shuffle has become cheaper, has acquired many color options for the case.
iPod Nano was transformed externally, got the opportunity to play video and got a screen of 320x240 pixels.
The standard
iPod received the
Classic suffix, became more capacious and, like the
Nano , switched to a new firmware.
iPod Touch caused a
lot of applause thanks to the revolutionary
MultiTouch interface and became the younger brother of the phenomenal
iPhone (the face is similar).

What to expect tomorrow?
Of course, the new
iPod Nano , whose photos are full of Internet. Streamlined shape, increased display size - such assumptions can be made by looking at the picture, but, most likely, this is not all.
New
iTunes 8 with interactive albums and amazing
Magnetosphere visualizer.
Updated
iPod Touch . Most likely, the changes will affect the design (will be closer to the
iPhone 3G ), the amount of memory and the cost of the device.
Chances are low cost
MacBook and other computers of the company.
Apple has long been thinking about lowering prices in order to overcome the psychological barrier of
$ 1,000 . Hopefully, if such an event occurs, it will most certainly affect the cost of beeches in Russia.
Many experts expect the appearance of a new firmware for the
iPhone -
2.1 , which should, at a minimum, hide all the bugs present in the previous firmware (without generating new ones), as well as introduce some improvements concerning the work of the
Push technology.
A new
MacBook Pro may be unveiled tomorrow. Quite a long time waiting for the cardinal lineup of professional notebooks from
Apple . Let me remind you that it was the
MacBook Air that, before its release, was considered a new
Pro , but its computational capabilities and the scarcity of external interfaces did not allow the full realization of these assumptions.
Conclusion
Whatever happens tomorrow, one can say with confidence that pleasant surprises await all of us, only their number varies.
