Live Coverage of the Apple Media Event (August 7, 2007)

[Steve Jobs=God]

Can't be bothered to read all 11 pages, but Apple Online Store is down

 

[aLoC]

What's under the drop cloth on engadget?

 

[suneohair]

Something under a black sheet! Or is it the iSheet!?

 

[newkeyboard]

Oh shiz! Looks a bit small to me though... What if someone jumped on stage and pulled the sheet off?!

engadget say it looks to be 30" or larger!!!!

 

[Project]

No kidding. MacRumors always has the best coverage and their system is far superior to these other blogs.

I cant really agree. Engadget have blown everybody away over the last few Keynotes. More detailed write ups, more frequent updates, more pictures. And I am not an Engadget fan generally.

 

[mongoos150]

Perhaps it's the angle that is making it look smaller. What do y'all think it is? Let speculation start.... NOW!

 

[The Scotsman]

Slashgear:
[10:02 AM] "today we are going to focus on the imac" - SJ


Seems to me Slashgear is doing the best live coverage. Seems on par with MR. Engadget is not updating near frequently enough.

 

[Markleshark]

We're underway.

I'm not an engadget fan at all but I have to agree with you on this one.

Lol I was about to say the exact same thing.

 

[giganten]

Will we get a new iMac today .

 

[suneohair]

Well there goes my Mac Pro hopes. "focus on the iMac." Bleh.

 

[chriswheat]

SlashGear is on top of it. Most detailed so far.

LOL the "iSheet". Love it. Is that like the "Infinity Dress" for computers? "It's a sheet, it's a screen cover, it's a privacy divider, and it's also a blanket!"

 

[The Scotsman]

erm when i open a new macrumors page there live update comes on. are they doing one

I agree. Macrumors had the news pointed slightly faster, but Engadget used complete sentences that made more sense to me.

...talking up iMacs

aluminum baby!

 

[God^Cent]

Yea he's just a kid but he knows what he's talking about... and is bringing up each new update from several sites ( its a lot easier to listen to him then keep refreshing 10 different web sites.)

edit: Steve just walked out onto the stage. Aluminum and glass based imacs!

 

[mongoos150]

[10:04 AM] "we will make it even better" using aluminum because it's professional and durable

Nice!

[mongoos150]

Are the guys at slash texting this stuff? Because they can't spell worth a hill of beans.

[10:05 AM] it's elegant and diirable

 

[ImAlwaysRight]

It is 10AM gang.

The Store Is Down.

Someone's late to the party.
