I hope so! I really hope it is NOT a school day. Every single MacWorld is on a school day, so I cant watch it. I skip school to go to MWSF though :) :D :cool: :rolleyes:

Well, do you have school Wednesday afternoon at 4:30?
If not, you're golden! Lucky me, I'm travelling to a conference and I won't be in class like I normally would!

I haven't seen verification that it will or will not be broadcast.

What are the chances of them *not* broadcasting it?
They did last year, and I'm not sure they'd have a reason not to. Should we expect a formal announcement on Monday?

i can't recall tmw ever being webcast. are you sure about last year?

MW Tokyo was broadcast last year... but I don't think it was the year before...

in general, I don't feel MWTokyo broadcast is a given... though since Jobs is giving it ( http://www.macrumors.com/viewstory.php3/sid/20020306132100/ ) - I would bet it will be... we'll see soon enough...

Yes, it was. And the link is still there, if you want to watch it again:

I say that it will either be broadcast live or a few days later (Like the iPod Launch)

I really hope so, anybody any idea what time it will be on and what day?

Actually, the keynote is at 9:30 AM on the 21st in Tokyo. It'll still be the 20th, here, though (in the US) - because of the International Dateline stuff. So, if they keynote is broadcast, we should be able to catch it on Wednesday evening (the 20th) at 7:30 Eastern, 4:30 Pacific.

Yup. It should be, oh... Midnight-thirty on Wednesday night for you, Ensign.

Time zones are fun! :D
