The TUAW "Create a Feb. 22 Apple Invite" contest

It all started with the supposed Airport Express invitation that showed up on Flickr, announcing an Apple press event for February 22nd. It was soon deemed to be a fake, and then two more popped up, with different designs (also fake). They weren't the best: in the Airport invite the perspective of the Apple was off, and the blue one actually misspelled the word "February." We know you can do better.

So, with that in mind, we're announcing the "Create a Feb. 22 Apple Invite" contest. Submit your best looking, most convincing, most plausible and clever invite to us by (when else) February 22nd by leaving a link to your creation in the comments to this post. A winner will be chosen by the TUAW staffers deep in our secret offices (a broom closet in the back of Penn Station) on February 22nd, and the winner will be announced on the 23rd. To the creator of our favorite invitation will go an Apple logo stainless travel mug that Scott bought at the Apple Campus Store (here is a pic of the prize) while in California for this past January's Macworld.

Good luck, and get cracking! Mac rumor sites are counting on you!

Squeaking in at the last minute, here's my entry:

I was trying to go for Apple's typical ambiguity. Is it movies on the iTMS? True Video iPod that lets you legally rip DVDs? Just an earlier-than-expected release of Final Cut Pro Universal Binary and such? Who knows?
