July 7th?

By Jay Savage

Well, this is all very interesting. I'm excited about the new color iPods and getting to play around with iTunes 4.9 with podcasting support. But now that they've been released more than a week earlier than expected, we have a new question on our hands: what is the big announcement Steve supposedly has scheduled for July 7th? Most of us assumed that the bash was going to be in honor of iTunes 4.9 and possibly the new iPods that showed up today. so what do we think is really going to happen on the 7th? Here are my top choices:

  • Nothing: the original claim came from Mac Bidouille, and something got lost in translation.
  • Steve climbs the Arc d'Triomphe and yells "ha, ha! Fooled you again, new media!"
  • New iPod Shuffles or iPod Minis.
  • Video capabilities for the new iPods and the iPod Photo.
  • The much ballyhooed, much maligned, long delayed iPod Phone.

What's your vote?
