23-inch iMac on September 12th? [Update]

Reports that Apple will be hosting a special media event on September 12th began emerging yesterday. According to multiple reports, Apple will be hosting the event in San Francisco which will be also streamed live to London.

MacOSXRumors now claims that Apple will be revamping the iMac line with the new Core 2 Duo processor at this event, with the additional introduction of a 23" iMac.

Larger iMac form-factor rumors were amongst the reject rumors for pre-WWDC rumors. MacOSXRumors, however, cites "reliable sources" for this report and did have some accurate predictions for Leopard (virtual desktops, tabbed iChat).
Update: Appleinsider also believes that the iMac will see Merom updates in mid-September along with a 23" iMac model.

Its about time, I mentioned this when the G5 iMacs came out, its obvious that this is going to happen, its a natural development of the iMac line. The evidence was there when the Cinema Displays were announced, the monitor support could clearly take a few heavier weight.

Its good news though, if only to save money. Also...

You heard it here first, come on 30" iMac!

Biggest, yes. Mainstream, not even close.

No more than $2,499/ £1,799. With the amount of internal room you would get behind a 23" monitor, Apple would have no problem putting in 4 RAM slots and a fast GPU (but I doubt Apple would do a fast GPU anyway).

So are the MacBooks going to get Merom or not? I'm going to buy a black one, but am waiting to see.
