iTunes 8 and iPod Nanos on Sept 9th?

Rose also claims iTunes 8 may have the ability to make music recommendations based on the user's music library.

yeah, it's called the Mini Store, and started in iTunes 7. I would be surprised if iTunes 8 didn't have that.

I believe it will also allow you to play music.

What about the so called GPS Touch that the other forums have been talking about?

I don't see why the iPod touch needs GPS - unless TomTom comes out with its offline mapping application, and Apple agrees to position the iPod touch as a GPS navigator, something I don't see happening.

I would like to see this on September 9th. Logic Studio was released on September 12th 2007, and comes with Quicktime 7 Pro. An early September release for Quicktime 8 would be great for a Logic Studio update.

sweeeet, i got 8 months of back pay coming to me on the 10th, the touch will have to be a HUGE disappointment for me not to get one.:D

uh, do you mean the 30 second clips itunes already allows you to listen to?

When I read that, I was rather thinking along the lines of Pandora - make suggestions based on music that you have which is similar to what you're now playing (and I don't simply mean the genre tags are the same).

Coloring in details left out of his controversial blog entry, Rose alleges early on in the episode that the new devices and their companion jukebox software should be unveiled on September 9th, or just two weeks from now.

Makes sense.

So... September 2 is when we will know. Too bad we may have to wait until 9 P.M. or so like last year's Mac event.

An early September event would give time for the MacBook redesign at the end of the month.

If iTunes gets a rewrite anything like what iMovie went through, then we may see the loss of the MiniStore.

His predictions are Factual, Useful, and Believable Apple Rumors. ;)

As others have said, this is already a feature in iTunes. I have my doubts as to Kevin's predictions. I even doubt the image he has released.
