Apple Media Event and iTunes Phone?
RBC Capital analyst Mark Sue said in a recent research note that Apple and Cingular were working out final details on revenue sharing.
Meanwhile, several news sites (HardMac) are reporting that Apple will be launching the new Phone next Tuesday with availability on July 4th. Meanwhile, other reports claim that Apple is hosting a special media event on July 7th. It's unclear if the two events will be related or are separate releases.
There has been much speculation on the event, but few concrete details.

Apple has planned a special press event first Thursday of July. It will be like the event of last October.
Apple Computer is distributing media alert and invitations to a special event that will take place on Thursday, July 7th, but the company is not yet offering details.
Apple news site MacBidouille is one of several French publications that claims to have received a media alert pertaining to the event. It's noted that a similar message was presented to the publication just prior the Oct., 2004 Apple music event that saw the launch of the iPod photo.
According to the web report, Apple is asking the media to reserve some time on the first Thursday of July to cover new Apple products and announcements.
Industry sources believe the event may very likely coincide with the planned high-profile launch of iTunes 4.9 with Podcasting support. Sources had previously stated that the software due for launch by the first week of July.
Sources also tell AppleInsider that the event could also play host to new iPod offerings, which may include second-generation iPod shuffles and possibly fifth-generation iPods.
It's not been stated where the event will take place, but last year Apple utilized the San Jose's California Theater to introduce the iPod photo in a similar media event.
New iPods? iTunes 4.9.
Seems to me like perfect time to coordinate the releases of iTunes 4.9 and the 5th Gen iPods...
It would be perfect for the 1 year cycle the ipod goes through. The 4th gen came out in mid-July.I personally dislike the 4G design, it doesn't turn me on like the 3G did.
I remember reading that Portal Player was releasing there new chip with the recorded 50 hour battery life this summer. Put the puzzle pieces together. ;)

I believe they already put that in the iPod mini 2g, thus the 18 hours of battery life :confused:
