osirisX Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 The Macbook wont see a case update until at least Macworld 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyX Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I'm pretty sure it's going to be an iPod event, nothing else. So maybe news related to iPod Shuffles (I doubt it), nanos (most likely), normal iPods (most likely) and iTunes (what else could they do in iTunes except making the new iPods compatible, honestly...). If I'm lucky, they'll update QuickTime to something totally different (since it's related to iTunes in some way), but hey... this one's never going to happen :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 iTunes 8 will probably be released as well, seeing as the new iPod will use a totally new user interface based on Mac OS X (according to the rumors, anyway.) That will give Apple a great excuse to release a new version of iTunes, lovingly bundled with not only QuickTime, but (for Windows users), Apple Software Update and Safari.

osirisX Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 iTunes 8 will no doubt have a black note based on the Media Browser icon in iWork 08. Steve Jobs told me so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPressland Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Well, the iPod will get updated yes, but the MacBook better not be! I only just got mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osirisX Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 iTunes, lovingly bundled with not only QuickTime Well it does rely on Quicktime for playback of anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divinatum Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I think a definitive 10.5 release date will be given in addition to these new iPods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Well it does rely on Quicktime for playback of anything... But I think it's the fact you can't download iTunes 7 without it that's annoying. Even if it is needed, there should always be a "standalone" installer. And I guarantee you that at some point, the Windows version of iTunes will also be bundled with Safari.

chrisgeleven Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 But I think it's the fact you can't download iTunes 7 without it that's annoying. Even if it is needed, there should always be a "standalone" installer. And I guarantee you that at some point, the Windows version of iTunes will also be bundled with Safari. Well, iTunes 7 would be kinda useless without Quicktime installed (it is used for both playback and encoding). Makes sense it is a bundled deal. Can't figure out why Safari would be bundled though (unless Apple plans to tie the rendering engine used to display the iTunes Store to Safari). Now that one makes no sense.
