Whenever you see this Apple-holed guitar, it's supposed to mean Apple is putting on an event having something to do with music.

Since Apple does not actually make musical instruments (at least as of this writing), that could only mean that something is a brew with iTunes or one of the iPod models.

Speculation today is that Apple will unveil a brand new version of iTunes, possibly incorporating the IP bought from the now defunct LaLa.com, as well as all new iPods designed along the lines of the current generation iPhone. The iPod Touch will include cameras and the iPod Nano is to include a new touchscreen and a dock connector making it compatible with the bulk of adapters available for the full-size i-devices.

Whatever the news, we only have a few minutes to wait, as Apple will be streaming, live, it's coverage of this keynote in just a few short hours.

If you have a Mac or i-device with net capabilities, you can visit Apple.com at 12 p.m. CST (10 a.m. PDT) and watch live. If your still one of the increasingly few that are PC-bound, then check back here a little later and we'll let you in on the scoop.
