Rumor: Apple shot ad for unreleased product

Here's a post for everyone awaiting the mythical "iTablet." The Sierra Sun is reporting that Apple recently shot a television ad for an unreleased product at the Truckee, California restaurant Jax on the Tracks. The Sun quotes Jax owner Bud Haley as saying that Apple wanted "...to show [the restaurant] as a hip and cool spot for the 20-something crowd." Additionally, there was a ban on all third-party photography during the shoot (of course).

We should note that we're pushing the 3rd week of August, and Apple typically releases new iPods in September. Who buys iPods? Well, 20-something college kids, among others. Share your theories in the comments, but we're going to play it safe and guess that Apple is gearing up for a back-to-school iPod promotion.
