Well the plot thickens! From what I have seen it looks like Apple have closed the Regents Street Store and put up large black curtains over all of the windows. An announcement outside says that it is closed until 4pm tomorrow for a private function. We know that this is an invite-only special press event. From all of this I will happily speculate that Apple are setting up the iPhone displays, possibly as I type, and they will launch tomorrow morning immediately. Whether this will be a ‘Gen. 2′ with 3G and larger capacity we will have to wait and see.

The other question on my mind is who will give the announcement. It could be Steve Jobs himself, or it may be someone else, such as the ‘head’ of Apple Europe. Either way I can’t wait if I am honest – I have been wanting to play with an iPhone for a long time and this looks like it may be my first chance.

I am also wondering whether they will launch the iPod touchs in the UK, as not having them out until the 28th once the iPhone is out seems a little counter-intuitive, to me at least.

Regardless, I finish early tomorrow and so will be heading off straight to the Regents Street store to be in line to play with Apple’s latest shiny new toy!
