Apple Prepping for Launch of New MacBooks and iPods?

Apple Prepping New Laptops and iPods?
According to reports, Apple is encouraging its retailers to stock up on more popular models of laptops and iPods as supplies from the factory are expected to slow in August. Usually, when Apple issues warnings such as these, it is because production is being scaled down in preparation for a product update.

The memo suggests retailers order three weeks worth of stock for laptops and four weeks of iPods. This would place the product refresh around the end of August or early September, which is right around when Apple usually announces its iPod line refresh (usually either July or September).

What are the rumor mills predicting for this latest product update? Everything from a return to the narrow form factor for the Nano (which is good -- that squat thing the company released last year is quite hideous), to glass touchpads and custom chipsets for the MacBook and MacBook Pro. We're sure the Internet will kick in to full-on Apple rumor frenzy soon, and we'll bring you every bad Photoshop mockup and cockamamie theory out there. [Source: TUAW]
