iTunes 9 still not 64-bit, internally referred to as “iTunes X”
One of the minor rumors surrounding the Music Event was that iTunes would be rewritten in Cocoa to enable it to match Snow Leopards 64-bit applications such as the Finder. However, this new release of iTunes is not yet 64-bit capable.
Apple cuts iPod prices in prelude to Event
In what appears to be a move to calibrate expectations for today's "Music Event," Apple has already announced price cuts to existing iPod models. This suggests that new offerings will be more expensive than some rumor-mongers had hoped, and that at least one or two new products might not be immediately available.

The September 9th Music event – Rumors and Expectations
Apple has once again scheduled its yearly Music event, this time it will be held on the 9th of September. What new or updated products can we expect? We'll run through some of the safe bets, and some unlikely wishes.
Will the ‘iTablet’ run iPhone OS or Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard?
As "iTablet" (Macbook Touch? iPhone Cinema?) rumors have reached a fever pitch in recent days thanks to several disclosures and leaks by third parties privy to late-stage prototypes of the device, speculation has mounted as to which variant of OS X it will run -- will it be an iPhone (ARM CPU, iPhone OS) or a Mac (Intel processor, OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard)?

Reader Q&A: What are Apple prototypes like?
From time to time, we select a few reader questions to answer as best we can, and today's comes from Kyle: "On your site, you often mention prototypes of Apple devices. I'm kind of curious how Apple works their prototype process. What do the prototype devices look like in the semi-finished state? Do they look like pieces of hardware slapped together by a sloppy DIYer or like the polished devices that we know Apple is famous for?"Read on for the answer

Snow Leopard build 10A402 seeded to developers
Weighing it at twice the size -- 1.3GB vs 655MB -- of the previous 10A394 build (itself the first major post-WWDC seed update), Snow Leopard 10A402 has been seeded to developers via Software Update from within the beta-stage Mac OS X 10.6. As usual, Apple's seed notes were short on details....but reader & source reports have already begun to reach our inboxes and the early reviews are very positive. Read on for details.

What’s next for iPhone & other iDevices?
While we continue to wait for the next two major 2009 iDevice roll-outs -- an iPod Touch "S" with specs similar to the iPhone 3GS and an entirely new large-screen device often referred to as "iTablet" -- rumor and speculation about 2010 iDevices has already begun to ramp up with a vengeance. One of the rumors with the greatest backing evidence is that of 1080P HD video recording capabilities, followed closely by new, slightly larger iPhone/iPod Touch displays with higher resolutions.

New Snow Leopard seed, 10A394 released via Software Update
Today Apple released Snow Leopard developer seed 10A394 through the Software Update system. This is the first Snow Leopard seed to be released in an "update" form through Software Update rather than as a complete separate build from the Apple Developer Connection website.

Safari 4 faster, more stable on Snow Leopard than 10.5.x
Although the upcoming 10.5.8 Update will address at least some of these issues, many readers have been reporting a wide range of problems and crashes with Safari 4.0 and 4.0.1 on Mac OS X 10.5. Interestingly, despite being incomplete and in need of further debugging itself, OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" has proven considerably better on both the performance and stability fronts with Safari 4.0.
