Wasn't there a special event scheduled for today? I realize the London bombings obviously has dwarfed the event, but I'm wondering if anyone has more details. Like time/location.

Nope. Wrong info from the Frenchie papers. It looks like something on the new iPods, I believe. AppleInsider had a bit on it.

No special event from Apple this week


It's no longer expected that Apple on Thursday will host a special event to introduce new music-related products. Sources now report that media alerts sent from Apple to several French publications were slightly misleading and misinterpreted.

In a message to the publications last month, the company asked that some time be reserved on July 7th when new products would be presented to them. Similar messages sent to the publications in prior months had resulted in media events that delivered Apple related goods.

Instead, sources say either Apple France or Apple Europe on Thursday will brief some media outlets on the latest iPod-related products. According to our checks, these products are existing Apple and third-party iPod accessories.

I just wonder what happened. There must be a reason why Steve pulled the plug.

Pulled the plug? People are saying it was all a misunderstanding.
