Steve Jobs has debuted the new cloud based Apple TV live on-stage at Apple's september music event. The terrifically tiny new design houses an A4 chip... and little else!

The service offers commercial-free HD movie and TV show (shows currently U.S only) rentals from just 99¢ an episode and $3.99 a flick. Also included is Netflix's app, which gives users access to even more titles, and a more flexible method of paying for content.

This, alongside a whole new UI and Apple's iOS screen-sharing software 'AirPlay' for just $99/£99

Perhaps the most innovative product of the bunch from Apple's September music event is the new iPod Nano. The Nano has undergone a complete re-make, ridding itself of the iconic click-wheel in way of a 240x240 1.54-inch multi-touch display.

The iPod has retained the same music playback and utilities from previous models, but spruced up in true iOS form. You can rotate the homescreen to any orientation using the same gesture you would to flip photos on Apple's multi-touch trackpad, and it'll pump out 24-hours of banging tunes before you need to plug it in.

Prices start at £129/$149 and shipping starts next week.

We don't like buttons? We do like buttons? Apple's obviously undecided.

As Jobs stands in the spotlight ready to announce a whole new generation of holiday iPods, theres one inevitably anomaly in the lineup that's bound to undergo some change: The iPod Shuffle. Now, the Shuffle has respectively been a great device, a slim opportunity for the big A to attract that ever diminishing sector of the market who seem to have more sense than money (I'm sorry but if your reading this, your probably as guilty of technolust as I am!).

Well the fact that people tend to need some kind of tactile control over their player has indeed prevailed, and the previously microscopic model has been replaced with a 2008-style 2GB shuffle. Shipping in a week for £39 or $49.

Apple have just announced their next generation iPod touch. As predicted it's playing catch-up to the latest iPhone. The addition of the coveted 'Retina' display, blazing fast 1GHZ A4 processor, HD video recording and a front-facing camera for FaceTime video chat makes this one killer device. Notably, the Touch uses Apple ID to connect with other devices for FaceTime. This means that not only can it call other iPods, but also the iPhone 4.

Oh, and did I forget to mention it's thin? The iTouch (as it hates being called, has always made the iPhone look like a bit of a porker, and this one, surprisingly, is no exception!

Prices starts from £189/$229 depending on which side of the pond your on and shipping is about a week either way.

It's September, Apple are out to play and their wielding a rather fruity looking guitar. That's right, it's music time!

As per usual the tech world is a-buzz with a smorgasbord of 'leaks', rumours, wish-lists and predictions.
