  "account": "Apple has confirmed a special 'Welcome home' product launch event is happening next Tuesday, October 13. However, the company has not yet announced whether there will be a keynote video. This new approach to product launches differs from previous years, such as the MacBook Neo debut in March, which featured an in-person press \"experience\" alongside multiple days of press releases. For this upcoming event on October 13, Apple has not added 'Welcome home' to its Apple Events webpage, and there is no evidence of a livestream on YouTube or the Apple TV app. These factors suggest there will likely not be a keynote video on October 13. However, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports that Apple will include an online video presentation and in-person component for press at a NYC \"Apple Experience,\" starting at 9:00 a.m. ET. If there is an announcement video, it is expected to debut online earlier than the typical keynote time. At least three new products are anticipated during the event. Readers are invited to share their expectations for a keynote video in the comments section. For more Apple news, visit 9to5Mac on YouTube.",
