Live Coverage of Apple's March 2015 'Spring Forward' Event

[rekhyt]

Love MR's live feed. Tried The Verge's one and it was too low quality. Jokes are fine but it really detracts from the experience.

MR's live feed: More succinct, to the point. Useful.

First time I've seem Jeff on stage

Apple to become a HMO.

 

[Vihzel]

So much woooing. It's embarrassing lol

 

[abshole765]

No new Apple TV? That is the most disappointing thing I'll hear today.

Keep on listening.

[ZacNicholson]

This keynote has been super boring so far.

In other news you can Airplay through soda machines where you never have to get off your couch to get a soda while watching a movie downloaded from Torrent.

He's got a watch hiding under that shirt.. Couldn't see Tim's...

 

[TallManNY]

Anyone else not getting the live stream? All I see is the logo and a photos popping up below it. Definitely no live stream.

I've getting solid live stream on my iPad over wifi.

 

[Trebuin]

Just downloaded research kit...jk

 

[cmwade77]

HBO Now is charging $15 for one channel? Umm.....I don't think that will work out for them when sling.com is charging $20 for multiple and even a movie package addon for Epix is only an additional $5 a month for multiple channels and it will included streaming of all movies on Epix.

You'll be able to find it with one of the new watch apps.

 

[DavidBlack]

Another Kit... how fun

They'll followup when they become the primary target for fraud...if they do. Their Chip system has been around for a while and works far better than our USA magnet strip system.

Chip & PIN is outdated. It's too slow and fiddly, and it's a security risk due to having to disclose your PIN for every small transaction. For these reasons it is already being replaced by contactless for small transactions.

Visa have announced their tokenisation service will be available in Europe from April. So most of the infrastructure is already in place - where is Apple pay?!

This keynote has been super boring so far.

I know - I'm waiting for more #Scarfgate and 'It's Road Trip' opportunities.
And a smooth live feed is just boring, said no one ever.

This keynote has been super boring so far.

Yeah. I'm already playing 'Shades of Blue' BINGO with their shirt colours.

 

[apolloa]

Buy an iPhone... sign up to medical research... hmmm no thanks. I hope it's not mandatory for your health information to be sent for research?

 

[Old Muley]

Carplay in Toyota? Either Toyota is not a "major manufacturer" or their announcement from a few weeks ago that they were not going to support it was in red herring.

 

[KPOM]

This keynote has been super boring so far.

Building up the suspense. Plus it lets them talk up some other initiatives while they have a "captive" audience.

 

[bpeeps]

What, you want token minorities on a show? LOL.

No, we want well thought out characters that are more than just the black friend, the asian martial arts expert, etc. Not really that hard to accomplish.

 

[caligurl]

stream doesnt work on ipad, but does on iphone...

WTF's up with that?

i had my mini all set up to watch.... NOTHING! finally tried phone and it's streaming.....

UGH

well at least i have a stream now.....

I agree on the pin exposure...that's why I like apple pay. Hopefully the banks solve the current apple pay fraud issue. That's not an apple problem, btw.

Yeah I'm disappointed too. I had hoped for a price of around $5.99 or $6.99.
