Steve is panicking :D

"I'm afraid we have a problem and I'm not going to be able to show you much today... let's just go take a look at some photos here... take a look at that."

10:44 am Steve concludes demo.
10:44 am Someone shouts, "Try Verizon."
10:43 am Asks Scott for any suggestions.
10:43 am Steve apologizing again.
10:43 am iPhone 4 slowly barely loads NY Times.
10:43 am Difference is fairly amazing.
10:42 am Steve goes back to showing photos.
10:42 am iPhone 4 now on AT&T, all kinds of error messages about not being connected to the internet popping up on iPhone 4.
10:41 am Switching to backups.
10:41 am NY Times still not loading on iPhone 4.
10:41 am Steve asks everyone to get off WiFi to help him out, audience laughs.
10:41 am Loading slowly, "networks in here always unpredictable."
10:40 am Loading up NY Times next.
10:40 am Zoomed in difference looking at home screen is remarkable. Apple had to get special projectors to show just how good this screen is.
10:39 am Firing up both phones.

That's just sad!

No, it was Wi-Fi, however, Jobs never had the proper back-up for Wi-Fi blackout.



It was stupid, Verizon is not fairing better.



Yes that is true, taking into account everyone else is also hammering AT&T and Moscone Center's Wi-Fi.


Clearly you have the personality of a wet carrot.

Hilarious.

Wifi was just shutdown and everybody asked to close laptops. Apple probably don't want it broadcast if there is another failure!

maybe

I know that but I there was so much speculation and lots of it came from credible people. I'm just underwhelmed that there was really not any surprises, AVI support would have been awesome. The best part of the whole thing was the ability for ibooks to read pdf's

How much do you think developers care about a Mobile Me update compared to a new iPhone and iOS?
