According to Electric Pig Apple are definitely releasing a new iPod at tomorrow’s Let’s Rock event.

“We’ve just been given the nod from a top UK peripheral manufacturer that Apple’s poised to unleash new iPods tomorrow, followed by a slew of new accessories.

“The manufacturer, contacting us with details of its new range, is scheduled to unveil cases and peripherals as soon as Thursday…”

Unfortunately Electric Pig have not published any details about the products that the unnamed manufacturer are due to release, nor any details about what would be seems to be some sort of new iPod. Perhaps there is some truth in the rumors rumours about a new Apple iPod Nano.

O2 started accepting online orders for the new Apple iPhone at 8am yesterday morning and managed to sell out mid-afternoon despite website failure.

Shortly after Steve Jobs announced the new iPhone 3G during his keynote speech during this year’s Worldwide Developers Conference last month O2 began its advertising. Those who were interested were encouraged to sign up for emailed announcements on how to order the new iPhone.

I was seriously considering getting the iPhone and signed up for further details but it was via Twitter that I discovered that O2 were accepting early orders online yesterday.
