Every week the numerous blogs covering the machinations of the Apple empire float tons of unconfirmed rumors, futuristic speculation, and questionably-sourced reports on what the company might be unveiling in the near or distant future. Let's take a look back at what these Mac blogs were excited about this week, from September 17-24. Check out last week's Apple rumors here, and follow me on Twitter for all the latest.

According to the redoubtable AllThingsD, Apple is going to hold an event on October 4th. What are they going to announce at this event? The iPhone 5, DUH!

Actually, we have no idea if
A) There actually will be an event on October 4th, or
B) If there is an event, what they will announce. But if there IS an event on October 4th, you better believe it will be to announce a new iPhone (or iPhones). A popular rumor has two new iPhones coming out this fall: one, a $99 handset similar to the iPhone 4 (but called "iPhone 4s") and aimed at bargain hunters; as well as the big kahuna, the iPhone 5.

So, sure, the next-generation iPhones just might be announced on October 4th, which is pretty soon. So where are the leaked pictures of these things? Ask and ye shall receive...

No iPhone 5. It will be a 4S. Get over it.

"Al Gore, Apple board member and former Vice President (the most recent VP who never shot anyone in the face)"

Who did Joe Biden shoot in the face?

Some officials within the company even accused workers of committing suicide to secure large compensation payments for their families.

Anti-suicide nets were put up around the dormitory buildings on the advice of psychologists.

Rumors are good.....for the stock! AAPL up 33% in the past three months and projected to grow another 25%. They must be doing something right!

speculation all around Apple on http://www.knewthenews.com/Tag/apple
October 4th, a new IPhone (and if, who cares actually?)
What about Steve Jobs - can Apple do without him? Some even considered Steve Wozniak to return to Apple ...

I am Apple product guy, but I certainly don't belong to the "cult". Its no secret they have great quality (at least I think so). Our whole office is on Mac Books, iPhone's and iPads, but you WONT find us waiting for the countdown, in some crazy line or salivating for the moment we can brag about our new handset. I think its crazy how some Mac Aficionados operate. On another note, I think its great that they are going to offer the iPhone 4's at discounted prices. I think Apple needs discounted prices for quality products, dedicated for the masses is needed. If they don't get it right, Android will certainly be the dominate player. - Giancarlo Maniaci

At this point, the iPhone 4s is only a rumor, according to the article. It would be nice were it true but Apple has no real reason to put out a 'bargain hunters' phone/device. I'd love it if it were true but it doesn't seem to flow with Apple's train of products (in so far as offering a model that far below the price of their others).

What are your thoughts on them not having 4g capable phone on the soon to be released model?

I have used 4g on verizon and it's fantastic. I'm a droid user today but was going to switch to apple but if they don't have the 4g it's kind of hard for me to go from DSL back to dial up.

OMG... Really are Apple product users that lame. Don't get me wrong I like Apple products but come on.

Just tell me what iphone 5 has, I don't care about rumors.

Will auto correct actually correct and not make things worse? Maybe program it to have "us" be "us" and not "u's" or "its" not turn into IRA. Geezzz.

It learns, so if u use "u's" a lot... It's a bit of your own issue. That said, a lot of its issues drive me nuts, too.

Ugh. Another iPhone/Apple Ad.

The closer the release date approaches, the frequency of these ads will increase to 5 a day!

Why don't they post something important, like this article about how apparently Vizio won't repair TVs that are over a year old?

who would buy a Vizio? Sorry I would stick with the Japanese manufactures and if need be go with one of the Korean ones, when it comes to TVs. I got a Panasonic plasma, and I love it. Almost went with a LG or Samsung but so happy I didn't.

They are the #2 maker of TVs. Apparently a lot of people are buying them.

Samsung makes the displays for Sony. Best in class.

Panasonics are OK, above average display.
