Apple to Offer Live Video Stream of Today's Media Event
Well, it won't be that long as 3-5 hours, but still I don't have much time after.
If it's live streamed, won't be the live-streamed version somewhere on their site?

I love how everyone is so excited...only to be disappointed because of false and lofty expectations.
The key to preparing for these events, is to expect little and hopefully you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I think the variability of whether they stream live or not has to do with control and event success perception. If we go back, we might find a pattern in where the event was hosted -- small vs large auditorium, at 1 Infinite Loop vs Moscone -- and the type of demonstrations -- wifi reliant or not.
Live streams may become more the norm once the Spaceship Apple campus is built. It'll no doubt be built to Apple's precise specifications for streaming live events. I wouldn't be surprised if they put in a WiFi/cell jammer to prevent attendees from A) interfering with wireless presentations and B) reporting live when Apple wants to play a recorded show after it's over.
I'm looking forward to today's show! Got $1000 ready for the top of the line iPad, Mavericks and Aperture 4 (the latter is more of a shot in the dark hope).

I have expectations about all the main rumours, Haswell rMBP, iPad 5, retina iPad Mini, and even though I know these are pretty much a given, that doesn't stop me from being excited.

Lol. I'm not even expecting Cook to walk on stage so I might be doubly excited!
Where can I download the amazing image of the building in high res?

I gave my iPad 3 to my dad in the summer waiting for the next generation so I'm dying for a new iPad today or later in the week.
I'm hoping that they don't leave out TouchID. Previous stories have demonstrated the TouchID hardware apparatus fitting perfectly in the new leaked front panel and being too small for the current Home button. That's a good sign. On the other hand, iPhone5S components are constrained likely due to TouchID so Apple could hold back until next year and may have just prepared the panel in case, but instead putting in a temporary smaller generic Home button. Also, ios7 hasn't shown any specific iPad uses for TouchID.
A definite use for TouchID on the iPad is for user accounts. For those who live alone or just don't share an iPad and wouldn't use mulitiple accounts for it's intended purpose, one could use one finger for logging in to a business account and another finger for personal (maybe even another finger or toe for a super secret account -- let your mind wander and think of the possibilities).
TouchID is going to be a very important technology for in the future and I'd hate to be left out by just one generation. Either way, I'm not waiting another year so I've got all my fingerprints crossed.

All the pre-event euphoria !! Love it. Enjoy it while you can because it will soon be replaced by chronic complaining.
^^ WHAT? You mean I can't get a superLTE iPad 5 with A8X processor for $250?
Shenanigans! Tim loves me and will deliver the goods.

It shows up here in Germany. I don't think it's restricted. Have you tried rebooting? Do you have the latest software version installed?
I hope so. Bugs came with iOS 7 on ipad 3 need to be fixed. I also expect a better fluidity on UI with next update.
