It’s less than two hours now until Apple releases news of a number of rumoured new products.
I doubt that a brand new iPod will be released since it’s been so soon since the new 5th generation iPod with video was announced but that’s not to say that special editions of it won’t come out (similar to the red/black U2 model). And by new iPod, I mean one with a new interface/design architecture like a huge touch screen. It’s not that they couldn’t, but it’s just that it’s uncharacteristic of them to bust out a new device when the sales of the previous generation are still so strong.
The one thing I’m hoping to read about is the fabled iPod boombox thingy. The one thing that’s currently a huge pain in the ass is being able to access my iTunes from my PC and get it routed into my home theatre set up in the living room. Wirelessly or not, this is only being addressed by the a couple of things, the Roku soundbridges and the Slim Devices Squeezebox.
By the way, if they don’t release it, then I’d happily recommend the Altec Lansing iM7, voted iLounge’s speaker system of the year 2005. Of course, the fact that it was designed in my studio does not influence my opinion of it in any way 
If Apple releases something like these two products, my Visa number would be tapped as fast as my Firefox autofill feature handle.
Damn you Apple!
Damn you Steve Jobs!
Damn you Jonathan Ive!
Why do you tease me so?
