Last minute "Let's Rock" predictions and roundup

With just over thirty minutes before today's press event, we're all aflutter here at TUAW headquarters. Since we can't contain ourselves, here's a last minute pre-event post.

Likely rumors

New iPods is a given. Aside from the iPod-themed invitation, all signs are pointing to a revamped nano line, with greater storage, a new design and UI. AppleInsider is suggesting that the longer nano will be the first non-touch iPod with a motion sensor.

I think we'll also see a price drop for the iPod touch. Finally, iTunes 8 will be demonstrated and released. If the rumors are to be believed, this will be a major update to iTunes, possibly with HD content. We can't wait.

What we won't see

No Macs. Believe me, I want to see the neglected MacBook Pro overhauled as much as you do, but it's not going to happen this afternoon.

Despite the coincidental calendar in the MobileMe logo above, the service won't see any changes today, either. This event is about music and iPods.

Of course, all will be revealed in short order, and you can watch the fun unfold with our liveblog of the event. See you then.

Press event bingo on your iPhone

Are you excited for the Sept. 9 press event? Do you like to play bingo? Are you an iPhone application developer? Then this post was delivered from on high directly to your visual cortex.

We've played bingo here on TUAW before. Who could forget iPhone Bingo or MWSF 2008 Bingo? Those were good times. Today, Ernst-Jan Pfauth at The Next Web wants to create a Let's Rock! bingo game, and he needs your help.

Forget PDFs, he wants a full iPhone application, and has posted some possible mock-ups on his site. It would be fun to play collaboratively over Wi-Fi or even upload additional cards for future events.

A web-based version is available here, but let's help Ernst-Jan realize his dream. iPhone developers -- can you give the guy a hand? And while we're at it... speaking of "limited utility..."

What are the odds that an app teasing Apple will go live in the iTunes App Store?
