  [quote] Don't you think if Apple was going to play with pricing / speeds, they'd want to update before the first Apple Store opens for the day? <hr></blockquote> Well, it's about 9:45 Eastern and nothing yet. Haven't some stores already opened?

  Just because some goofy web site says something *might* happen today doesn't make it true...

  That's why I encased my original quote in [salt grain] tags. I didn't know if it was true or not, but I thought I'd pass it along. Guess I won't make that mistake again. <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" /> <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />

  So there won't be a press release? ALL THIS SHIT IS COMING FROM RUMOR SITES???
  
  
  
  That's pathetic. I hate rumor sites when they do that.

  If Apple did any thing, it wouldn't be until at least 12:00 PM EST (9:00 AM PST).

  I was perusing the Apple site just now and noticed the "180 days no payment option" for Apple Instant Loans which ends on Jan 31.
  
  
  
  At first I thought that Apple wold not want to have this offer active and have a potentially big selling upgrade/speed bump announcement with no sales revenues to report for the quarter.
  
  
  
  Then I thought, "Oh wait, It would just mean that MBNA was one of their biggest buyers for this quarter." SO I guess that the "180 days" promo would have no effect on product announcements. Right?
  
  
  
  i'll shut up now.
