Something must be wrong with me..
I'm more excited about this event then I was on Christmas Eve. I wish I could be there.

Apple controls the leaks. The packaging, the advertising and everything else has already been done. This stuff is obviously strategic. Hell, you have to train the folks in China how to pack your new stuff in the boxes. It's a huge expensive, logistical process. Really, these things are years in development.
I can't wait. But if a tablet is released, I'm getting the 2nd generation.

While I'm sure the tablet will be quite the device, I really couldn't care less about it. I have a perfectly good MacBook that I'm very happy with. What I'm looking forward to is the announcement of the next iPhone OS - one that hopefully bridges the gap between the current OS and the wonderful things that the jailbreaking community has delivered.
Media Event Schedule Conflicts
What amazes me is the number of companies that schedule corporate events on the same day as an Apple event.
I just received an invite to a marketing-related webinar which overlays the Apple event by 30 minutes. Who in their right mind would be foolish enough do such a thing?
Oh, yes... for the record, I am one of those crazy fanboys who will be buying whatever it is Steve announces on Wednesday, whatever the price. :^)

try again. those workers are probably an outside company that specializes in such banner installs, billboards etc. NOT actual Apple employees.
Will we get one of the famous elevator shots that we have had in the past?
For now it looks empty

Kinda off topic you know how so many pc useres are like Macs are over priced and under powered how under powered are they I wouldn't think much... And I'm going to be replaceing my old mbp for a new one if they release a new i5 pro will that battery life suck ? Should I just get the current one?
hmm
It is for renting a place, but Apple gets every penny back when Apple gets free PR from the press and increase hype about the iProducts, so the money they spend on the event are gonna come back within a week of launch of the new product. So its a win win.
