 Apple has confirmed a rumored media event scheduled for Wednesday,
 27 January 2010, at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San
 Francisco by sending email invitations to media outlets, including
 TidBITS. As usual, the invitation gives no details as to what will
 be announced, merely providing the time, place, and directions along
 with the phrase, "Come see our latest creation" under a
 paint-splattered graphic.

 Most people we've spoken with expect Apple to announce some sort of
 tablet-sized device, though speculation has run so rampant that it's
 impossible to say anything more than that with any confidence. But
 Apple has surprised in the past, and it could happen again, with
 something entirely unexpected.

 Needless to say, the timing of this announcement is either ironic,
 coming as it does between the time when Macworld Expo was
 traditionally held in early January and the new date in
 mid-February, or intentionally scheduled to emphasize the level to
 which Apple can manufacture its own media attention rather than
 piggybacking on a large trade show.
