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.

September 9th Apple Event preview

As we prepare for Rumors' Live Coverage of tomorrow's "music-centric" Apple Event beginning just before 10AM PT/1PM ET, our backlog of summer dirt reported by the usual suspects has revealed some unique insights into what we might see there.

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)?

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.

WWDC Preview Part 3: iPod Touch, Other iDevices, One More Thing?

With time before today's WWDC Keynote growing short and breaking rumors of Steve Jobs' presence at the Moscone Center sending the grapevine into a frenzy, let's take a quick look at some of the less certain, but no less exciting, possibilities that we might see emerge into the light of day this morning (PDT)/afternoon (EDT) in San Francisco: new iPod Touch model(s), other iDevices ("iTablet"?!), and the ever-present potential for a completely unanticipated "One More Thing" -- potential that has just received a huge injection of probability if the Steve Jobs sightings at Moscone are what they appear to be.

WWDC 2009 Preview Part 2: iPhone OS 3.0 & Snow Leopard

With the WWDC 2009 Keynote event nearly upon us, let's taking a quick look at what we can expect from Apple's next-generation operating systems: iPhone OS 3.0 and Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard". Although we've known for some time now that we'll only see a 'Final Beta' of Snow Leopard this week, expectations for iPhone OS are somewhat less certain. In both cases, we anticipate a few surprises....the real question is how big they'll be.

Other iDevices may wait, 2009 iPhone will be announced at WWDC

There has been some debate in recent days as to whether all four (or more!) 2009 iDevices which have been hinted at with multiple references in the code of iPhone OS 3.0 as well as countless published rumor-mongering reports and our own conversations with sources, will actually be announced -- no less ship -- at the World Wide Developer Conference next month.There is plenty of room for debate on the larger question, but when it comes to at least two distinct 2009 iPhone models ($99 8GB entry-level and $199/$299 16/32GB high-end models?), Rumors is very confident that we'll be seeing them during the keynote address on June 8th.

iPod Touch, other 2009 iDevices to include video camera?

Although predictions of timing (such as whether any new hardware at all will be announced, no less released, at WWDC next month -- or perhaps only the new iPhones and/or all-new iDevices such as the "iTablet" will ship then, leaving an updated iPod Touch release to wait until later in the summer) and features have begun to diverge wildly across the grapevine, one thing appears increasingly likely based on published speculation and our own source reports: the 2009 iDevice family could feature cameras with at least 3.2 megapixel photo resolution and up to 720P HD video across the entire lineup.

Multitasking for 3rd-Party Apps?

One of the hottest topics on the grapevine this weekend has been an emerging rumor based on multiple leaks (including more than one of our own sources) regarding the ability of 3rd-party apps being able to run in the background -- rather than just displaying "background notifications" as announced for iPhone OS 3.0 this summer on all supported iDevices. New reports from our sources have shed much more light on this and how it relates to the evolution of iDevice hardware.
