Apple prepares for iPod event, puts up banners
According to iPhone Savior, Apple is preparing for their Tuesday, September 9th event by placing banners up outside of the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco. As we get closer to the event, it looks more and more likely to pan out as a true iPod event, bringing updates to the iPod nano, and other surprises. MacRumors notes that Apple is urging the media to attend this event, denoting it as a "big deal." The event will be held this coming Tuesday (September 9, 2008) at 10 a.m. Pacific time, 1 p.m. Eastern time. TUAW will be providing coverage throughout the day, so be sure to check in often.

Does the event have many leather bound books and an apartment smelling of rich mahogany?

Your are about 4 years late for that movie line to really work. Plus, it doesn't even make sense for the topic. Whatever, I suggest you look for new material, as to keep you from looking like a tool in the future.

Hopefully it's a new tv

No.

If you don't have the Beatles on your iPod by now, chances are you just aren't a fan.

Another iPod-only event that'll make me go "hm, that's it?"..
Sigh, I *want* to give Apple $2k for a new MBP, but it's like they don't want me to buy one. :P

In these silhouette ads the iPods have always been white, so the colour of the iPod in the banner means nothing.
A white iPod touch does seem likely though. Guess we'll know by this time tomorrow, huh?

Indeed.
Does TUAW have any job openings for people who can just sit and look at other tech sites & post news around the time when it *actually happens*?

As a matter of fact, we do. I see your comment was posted at an odd hour for us (nearly all East coast). So put your money where your mouth is and send us 3 sample posts via the tips form.
thanks!

I just walked past the Apple store on Stockton Street in San Francisco, they're emptying the tables downstairs and are closed pretty early (I'm only on here on vacation, so maybe they do this every night?)... It seems like they're preparing for something though.

You've got to wonder what a banner like the one shown in that photo costs. You don't get that made at Kinko's... that's for damn sure.
