September 5th Special Event: 3.5-inch Touch Screen iPod, Madonna

3.5-inch touch-screen iPod debuts tomorrow

Think Secret notes that Apple will finally debut a 3.5-inch touch-screen tomorrow, 20 months after the site broke the news.

The rumour site writes that the new iPod will have similar dimensions to the iPhone with which it will share the same display. Sources note to Think Secret that the iPod line will continue to sport hard-drives as opposed to flash-based memory.

Think Secret also mentions that the rumour of digital radio inclusion should be taken with a grain of salt but does not discount rumours of wireless capabilities.

Madonna: "The Beat Goes On."

MacDailyNews writes on another possible tangent that Apple could address in tomorrows Special Event. When Apple sent out invitations the invite read "The beat goes on".

This has caused many people to speculate on the meaning, first of all it was noted that The Beatles' final press released ended with the line, it was a very famous song by Sonny and Cher and the phrase appears on Sonny Bono's gravestone.

MacDailyNews now points towards to the upcoming album by Madonna titled "The Beat Goes On."
