Two years ago, Apple showed off the iPod Touch at an event much like the one that’s supposedly happening around September 7th, and let’s not forget the remodelling of the iPod Nano. But this time around, the rumor-mill is working in over time, and in standard Apple fashion, they’re not providing any kind of answers yet. They haven’t even cemented the idea of an event, or its exact date. So, what should we expect? A tablet? Something worth far less fanfare?

The last bit of news Phil had for us before stepping off the stage was opened with the famous “One last thing….” line. This news is about iTunes oddly enough. To date Apple has sold 6 million songs through iTunes and is now the largest media library with 75 million accounts.

After all the usual rumor, intrigue and speculation, another Macworld Keynote comes to a close. It’s been a morning of updates and a few significant launches, with Apple TV, iTunes, the iPhone and the iPod Touch all getting new software, the introduction of $3.99 movie rentals from all of the major studios, Apple’s first NAS in the shape of the Time Capsule and, of course, the super-slim, super-sexy (and already super-controversial) MacBook Air.
