It's only a week away, so we are in the midst of the customary Apple FUD season, but with the iPhone v. FBI brouhaha, it's not as obvious as usual.

Apple has sent out its invitations to next week's Apple product announcement event titled "Let Us Loop You In". . . Anyone got any ideas what that could mean? Normally, that would mean we would be hot and heavy in the midst of Apple FUD Season, but with the Apple vs. FBI/DOJ set-to over the terrorists' iPhone, that is taking the place of the normal FUD season attacks on Apple, any fake hand-wringing would be lost in the noise. — PING!

I'm guessing lasso and hogtie, but I could be taking it too literally.

it’s a wrist loop that’s compatible with the Watch; it’s a sort of leash for the new 4” iPhone, so one doesn’t drop it or lose it, and it fastens to the phone with a brand new proprietary connector of some sort. ;’)
But seriously folks... I think the reference is to Apple’s dandy new HQ, the big sphincter-shaped gargantuan structure, which is indeed a circle or loop if you will — IOW, it’ll be the metaphor, but not really have much to do with the new product intros, which appear to be a little ho-hum.
There’s a 9.7” tablet; 4” iPhone (which will probably have a killer low price, to finish off a number of market competitors — “when the other guy is treading water, put a live hose in his mouth”); either two or three refreshed MacBook Pro models.
Hilariously, there’s also a rumor about an Apple ring, literally a smart ring one wears on one’s finger to communicate with Siri, who is still virtual-living in your phone. That *would* fit the loop idea.

They might be referring to the campus, One Infinite Loop.

Pretty soon they’ll be selling Apple Jacks and Fruit Loops and then Kellog’s will have to take them to court for brand infringement.
