Apple confirms event in SF
Apple today confirmed that it will hold a special event on September 12th to introduce new products and services. The company issued an invitation with the words "It's Showtime" with Hollywood movie premiere spotlights crisscrossing over and around the white Apple logo on a dark blue background. The event is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. local time at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco, California. Apple is expected to launch its new digital media strategy at the special event with a new 23-inch iMac, a widescreen video iPod, an iTunes Movie offering, and "one more thing," according to AppleInsider.

Sure....
I can see a movie store, I can see a new video iPod, but a new iMac, and another one more thing? That makes no sense, marketing-wise. The new iMac will be completley ignored (oooh, an imac with a larger screen, but still no room for two hard drives or a video card slot). And any one-more thing will either be completly overshadowed by the overblown video store news ("woohoo, we can spend way too much money for crappy looking movies!") or the one more thing ("Wow! A cell phone! I can make calls from anywhere? What a great idea!") will take away the hype of the movie store.
