Last week’s rumours were right on the money. Apple today began to send out press invitations for an October 16 event. It will take place at Apple’s own Town Hall auditorium at its Infinite Loop Campus in Cupertino, California. As usual, Apple’s invitation reveals little about what is on tap for the event.
