Today, in their It’s only Rock and Roll Event, Apple  announced the new iPod Nano 5th generation with a camera. Many rumors were pointing towards the iPod Touch getting a camera but unfortunately it didn’t happen.

The new iPod Nano comes in nine different colors, has a larger 2.2 inch display, has a aluminum polished finish, and is very environment friendly (as Apple Advertised in their event). The 8 GB iPod Nano is $149, while the 16 GB iPod Nano is $179. The new iPod nano also supports 20 VoiceOver languages.

YouTube users will love the new iPod Nano. Recorded videos can be uploaded with just a click. With the iPhone 3GS and now the iPod Nano getting a camera, Apple will dominate mobile uploads on YouTube. What do you think about the new iPod Nano? Will you be buying it? Leave a comment below.

Today is September 9, 2009. Apple will be holding their It’s Only Rock and Roll Live Event at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco at 1:00 PM Est/ 10:00 AM Pacific time.

Apple is expected to reveal the new iPod Touch 3rd Generation (with camera), iPod nano 5th generation, and iTunes 9 software update. The prices of the iPod Classic were reduced, and the Apple Store is down right now. In about an hour from now we will be live blogging the Apple Rock and Roll event on QuickPWN.com. Be sure to come back here to check for the latest updates on what Apple is announcing! We will be posting and also updating twitter (@QuickPWN).

Are you excited about this event today? What are your predictions? Leave them in the comments and you can compare later to see if you were right.

Before the Apple Store went down, Apple had reduced the price of the iPod Touch, iPod Nano, and iPod Classic models. The price changes are listed below.

Price changes:

• iPod Touch 8 GB: Was $229, now $189
• iPod Touch 32 GB:  Was $399, now $279
• iPod Nano 16 GB: Was $199, now $149
• iPod Classic 120 GB: Was $249, now $229

It’s obvious that these prices were changed in preparation for the new iPod Touch 3rd Generation and new iPod Nano’s that Apple will be announcing at their live event today. At 1 PM Est/10 AM Pacific Apple will hold their It’s Only Rock and Roll event.

Yes, the Apple Store is down. Just a couple hours before their September 9 announcement in the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Apple has closed their store and are updating it.

I’m not surprised, and you shouldn’t be either. The Apple Store went down in last year’s maintenance, and also when Snow Leopard was released. There is no doubt that the new iPod Touch 3rd Generation, the new iPod Nano, and iTunes 9 will be added.  It won’t be on there yet, you’ll need to wait until the official announcement which will be on 1 PM Est/10 AM Pacific. There will be a live blog of the events on QuickPWN.com and we’ll be covering everything Apple adds. Stay tuned!

In a few hours Apple will be holding their September 9 event and announcing their new products. That doesn’t stop other companies from leaking it before they do. Has the new iPod Touch 3G been revealed by Cygnett, an iPod & MP3 accessories store located in Australia? Look at the picture above and decide.

The picture Cygnett posted on their site shows an iPod Touch 3G with a camera and volume buttons on the right. While we already knew that the iPod Touch 3G is getting a camera, we did not know that it would have the volume up and down buttons like the iPhone does. If so, this is good news for iPod owners! I’m sure Apple will have other changes to the iPod Touch 3G as well.

The new iPod Nano 5th Generation is also on Cygnett. There doesn’t seem to be any indication of a camera in the new iPod Nano as many people thought there would be, but you can take a look at the pictures on the Cygnett website. Whether or not Cygnett made this up, we will find out in a few hours. Stay tuned on QuickPWN.com, as we will be doing a live blog on Apple’s event as soon as it starts (1:00 PM Est/10:00 AM Pacific).

Tomorrow, September 9, 2009 is the day when Apple will be holding the “It’s only rock and roll” event. This event will be held in Yerba Buena Center for the Arts at 1 PM Est (10 AM Pacific).

If you look closely at the picture for this event, you’ll notice that the headphones are at the bottom of the iPod. This indicates that the iPod in the picture is an iPod Touch and not an iPod Classic. Apple is most likely going to discontinue the iPod Classic and release a newer iPod Touch.

Here is what I believe Apple will be releasing on September 9:

1. iPod Touch 3rd Generation – The iPod Touch 3rd generation is expected to be released tomorrow. It will have a camera that allows you to take pictures and videos. The new iPod Touch 3rd generation will also have faster speeds than the current iPod Touch.

2. New iPod Nano – There are rumors of Apple launching a new iPod Nano just like they did at last year’s September 9 event.

3. iTunes 9 – iTunes 8 was released on September 9, and it would not surprise me if Apple releases iTunes 9 on tomorrow’s event. iTunes 9 will have blu-ray support, social integration, and also allow you to manage your apps and rearrange them on your iPhone/iPod Touch screen right from iTunes.
