Live Coverage of Apple's iPad Mini Media Event [Event Ended]

[jrswizzle]

I don't know what you people are talking about - my iPad is streaming the HD video perfectly on LTE.

Too bad my 3 GB will be gone in about 30 minutes lol

 

[J.Appleseed]

Doesn't do **** here as well.

EDIT
Oh, it does when using Safari. But no sound?

 

[rorschach]

I laugh at these losers cheering after buying an iPhone at launch.

Yeah. Damn people for having a good time! What losers.

 

[shawnwich]

this stream is not working out at all. it keeps cutting from tim to the shots of the venue with the sdklfjl;kdjflkjing banjo

 

[Boatboy24]

Who has a decent live blog? The first few I've looked at were crap.

 

[TsMkLg068426]

[SylarDX85]

How are people watching it? I keep getting this:

Exactly what I am getting!

 

[karsten]

I still can't get used to Cook and the fake way he talks. Enough already. Lose the videos and get to the products and start talking honestly instead of with the faux amazement.

Couldn't agree more - it's "really, really" annoying

the koolaid is strong in his blood.

 

[LagunaSol]

You're doing a great job at the helm, Tim, but the overly-dramatic keynote "reading" needs work.

It's not easy replacing Steve.

 

[bushido]

PLEASE! iTunes 11 today I am bored and need something to update lol.

lol i feel ya - need somethin new to play around with

p.s he sucks at presenting, if this was my prof during lectures id fall asleep within 5 minutes

"desiiiiiiiigned" "take advaaaaaantage" "aaaaanooooother" "billioooooon"

 

[MattSepeta]

They are not including imacs in those pics because they will be unveiling a new one at the end :fingers crossed:

 

[frayne182]

Pretty stupid how it only works on Safari.... Oh well don't need to watch it that bad

 

[close2reality]

Running smooth here on 110 Mbps connection

 

[Alfuh]

There was the first mention of iPad apps "not being big stretched out smartphone apps"

I'm assuming that is going to come into play a lot more later as they differentiate the iPad mini and the 7" Android tabs

 

[Geckotek]

Any guess how much data this will use streaming to my VZW iPad?

 

[jafingi]

Stream working great here on my school's WiFi.. Not gonna learn much today hmmm....

 

[rorschach]

iBooks coming up.

 

[CocoaPuffs]

Cook definitely needs some acting classes...

I am waiting for him to say, "OH-MY-GOSH" as he presents the new iPad.

 

[Imaginethe]

Listening to Tim Cook makes me think of Judge Reinhold....

 

[inscrewtable]

Been on for 10 mins and it's clear that Tim has done a course in "Spruiking 101"

 

[TsMkLg068426]

lol i feel ya - need somethin new to play around with

I wish I could get the iPhone 5 but I got my iPhone 4s during June 2012 with a 2 year contract

So I need need something to make me feel good.

 

[Phil A.]

Exactly the same as Jobs. Watch him say how everything "pops off the screen" when introducing retina display and every product with a screen ever.

Yeah, I know, but Cook sounds forced and unnatural, whereas Jobs at least sounded like he believed what he was saying.

The way he drops his voice down a few decibels to try and impart faux amazement is really grating, too

 

[Rocketman]

The live shot on CNBC is about 20 or 30 seconds ahead of the Apple website live feed.

 

[lowbatteries]

Live streaming to a limited number of walled garden devices or browsers?
Now that's innovation.
Apple should sue everybody who has been live streaming for the last ten years.

What technology should they use for streaming? Flash? Windows Media?

As far as I'm aware, all scalable streaming formats are proprietary. Of course they are going to choose their own.

 

[ECUpirate44]

iBooks coming up.

Yep, here we go.
