I guess we will know in 30 mins for those on the East Coast. I wonder how they are checking the timezones if this is a case. I could use a proxy if they are doing it by IP. I highly doubt it would be something as simple as the clock / time setting. It would have to be by IP.
 
Ok, I will admit the search engine on this site sucks. It's probably using the Google engine. I just tried to do a search of threads containing questions about the release time and got everything but.

Maybe the Mods should put a stick that has:

Title: 3.0 Release Time
Message: We don't know. When it becomes available, we promise we will tell you.​

And then lock it from comments. Once it is ready for download, then they can delete the thread.
 
If it's at midnight, I bet it'll be midnight Pacific time, as Apple always does everything in Pacific time.
 
Why be mean?

To the people who criticize the OP, why did you enter the thread? I can think of no other reason than to be critical. I mean, you knew from the title of the thread what was going to be in here. If it bugs you, just don't click on the link and you won't be bothered any longer that it takes for you to read the thread title on the forum page. Unless it takes you a long time to read those few words...
 
I am glad I asked this question 12 hours ago when people weren't sick of it.

I am GUESSING that it will be either 9am Cupertino time or 12:00pm Cupertino Time.. That is what last years 2.0 was

I figure if I keep responding to it, it will stay near the top and the 19th thread on this topic in the last hour will not be created. ;)
 
:rolleyes:
Huh. There's a certain logic to that. Gotta give ya' that. (But still, isn't there enough angst in the world already?)
 
Don't these things usually hit around 5:00 PM?

There are other threads on this? I didn't see them.
 
YEa to tell you the truth, that search thing sucks! It doesnt really help at all.

took me a while to find it too, my thread asking the same question was sent to the wasteland within minutes lol

guess everyone is already tense about when they'll get their 3.0 too ;)

must be a lot of coffee junkies on here tonight
 
usually around 10am-12pm PST

Apple said June 15...they didn't say what time. If I'm Apple, I'm reading all these people wanting the 3.0 software and will stay up all night for it. I set it to release at 3:37PM PST for grins and giggles.

Also, announcing the time is a sure-fire way of trashing the servers.
