Techies dreaming of an Apple Tablet will have to put their fantasies on hold.

The Cupertino, Calif. company will reportedly unveil an iPod Nano and an iPod Touch with point-and-shoot cameras and a new social networking friendly version of iTunes at a Sept. 9 event, according to The Silicon Valley Business Journal.

Internet blogs and message boards have been speculating that Apple might introduce a small touch screen computer to compete with netbooks as early as next month.

Instead DigiTimes reports that OmniVision has signed a deal with Apple to provide 3.2-megapixel CMOS sensors for point and shoot cameras to be installed in iPods.

There are also reports that Apple might unveil a partnership with the Beatles to sell the rock legends music on iTunes and possibly even a "Yellow Submarine" iPod. But there is still no confirmation if any of the apps in leaked iPhone commercial below will be unveiled.
