We're just over a week away from Apple's big event, which is expected to reveal the iPhone 6s and new Apple TV among potentially other new/revised gadgets, and sources are starting to share their inside info en masse.

Much of it comes from 9to5Mac, a reliable place for Apple leaks in recent years, and the latest revelation has to do with the Apple TV. Namely, the expected fourth-generation set-top box should release in October after being unveiled on 9 September.

And there's some word on pricing, which seemed like a wild card after we started seeing details on all the upgrades and enhancements - like a remote with a touchpad, a microphone for Siri controls, and even Wii-like motion controls. According to the report, Apple plans to price the box at either US$149 (about £97) or US$199 (about £130). That's a significant markup from the current model, which sold for US$99/£79 for some time before dropping down to US$69/£59 this spring.

Admittedly, US$199 for a set-top box seems ambitious - even for an Apple product - given how much the Amazon Fire TV and Android TV-powered boxes run for. However, US$149 would make sense, given all the upgrades and the typical price of Apple gadgets compared to competitors' equivalents.
