iPod Touch and MacBook Updates for September?

A new analyst report from Piper Jaffray claims that Apple's September announcement will reveal a new iPod Touch and new MacBooks.

Analyst Mike Olson predicts that the iPod Touch will be tweaked to resemble Apple's new iPhone 3G and also raises the possibility of price drops and/or capacity increases. Recent Firmware hints have suggested the iPod Touch could see feature upgrades as well. The expectation of a new iPod Touch is also consistent with whispers we've heard.

Olson also points to slimmer MacBooks which could also have newly designed keyboards. This prediction may have been inspired by circulating rumors and photos depicting an aluminum MacBook. Apple has been rumored to be introducing "major design changes" to their notebook computers this fall.

Apple's choice of processors for a new MacBook revision will certainly be Intel's upgraded Penryn processors which were introduced alongside the Montevina platform in July. The latest Intel processors boost processor speeds up to 3.06GHz and also increase bus speeds to 1066MHz (from 800MHz). The new MacBooks will likely also benefit from upgraded integrated graphics with the GMA X4500. The GMA X4500 benchmarks significantly faster than the GMA X3100 found in current MacBooks. While there has been some talk that Apple will migrate to a 3rd party chipset, the implications of such a move remain unclear.

this is good except that it will only make you want one

the ipods and macbooks need an update

yeah i know, it's been a while

they will be updated, sooner or later. but most likely after the back-to-school sale

of course they will wait til after the back-to-school sale, which stinks for all those who just bought a new computer.

yeah, it, does but i can't wait till the new updates are out

that's why you buy at the beginning of the promotion

yeah i guess so, but it will still make you want the new updated one.

yeah, everyone will want the updated one. but that doesn't mean that they will buy it

thats true. most of the people who just bought one wont buy the new updated one.

that's right

but some people will convince theirselves that they just have to have that new one and sooner or later they get it.

some people will do that, but not many
