Other things I expect to see at the event:

• new iPod Touch with camera, microphone, increased storage and lower price
• new iTunes with social networking features, Blu-Ray support and—please god—iPhone app organization
• enhanced digital album art (“Cocktail“)
• Steve Jobs

I will bet against seeing the Mac tablet/”iPad” a week from Wednesday. Anyone want to take my money?

1. The Beatles: Rock Band “Ticket to Ride” video, set in Shea Stadium, is up on thebeatlesrockband.com.
2. While you’re there, check out gameplay trailer #3, featuring “A Hard Day’s Night,” “Drive My Car,” “Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds,” “Dear Prudence,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Helter Skelter” (which promises to tear my voice up worse than “Ace of Spades” ever did), “Come Together” and “Don’t Let Me Down.”
3. And I thought I’d seen this confirmed elsewhere a while ago, but Gizmodo reports that there will be stereo and mono versions of the complete Beatles catalog boxed sets. If you don’t know why getting the Beatles stuff in mono is a big deal, they also have a great article that explains exactly why.
