Apple Computer's shares jumped 4.53 percent to close at $71.48 Tuesday after e-mail invitations to an event next week fueled rumors of a new movie downloading service. The rumors apparently gained momentum after the invitations -- which said "It's Showtime" -- from Cupertino-based Apple went out to the media. The event is scheduled for Sept. 12 in San Francisco, the same day as the opening of Apple Expo in Paris.
