EMI/Apple press event on Monday

Could this be the introduction of Beatles music in the iTunes Store?

According to the BBC, Apple sent a notice to certain members of the press on Sunday (except TUAW, for some strange reason) inviting them to a press event in London for this Monday. Expected to attend are Steve Jobs, EMI representatives and a special artist or band who will offer a live performance. Plus, the invite teases an "...exciting new digital offering." Hmmm.

Apple, Inc. and Apple Corps settled their dispute back in February, and several months ago Steve issued this invitation:

"..We have always loved the Beatles, and hopefully we can now work together to get them on the iTunes Music Store...We are glad to put this disagreement behind us."

Thanks, Fraser!

Update: Before we get too excited, let's remember today's date. Though that would be a mean trick.
