What time will the event be in Australian time?

Let's see... California is GMT -8, and Austrailia is GMT +10, so that means it was anounced in Austrailia about an hour ago.

Lucky bastards.

haha, no comment
 
since I have been checking this forum every 10 seconds or so, i figured I would actually register and say "hi" to everyone and thanks for making me seem sane in my quest for a new MBP. :p

the fingers are crossed for a new and improved MBP....

Welcome dsleep. I'm glad I am not the only one patiently being impatient about possibe announcements tomorrow.
 
It is now confirmed upgraded MacBooks will arrive before new MacBook Pros. It's probably as it should be.
 
So ... will everyone just stay up all night waiting to hear? I feel like the biggest LOSER just sitting here reading comments and hoping that someone, somehow, will know THE TRUTH. I'm tired, kids! Why can't I just give it up and hit the sack? :confused:

In theory, the quicker we go to sleep, the quicker we'll know.

....In theory.

I also can't seem to stop hitting "reload" with my fingers crossed.

yea why is that? im sitting here, w/ 5 hours before i have to get up for class tomorrw, and I keep hitting reload as if someone will come up with a post saying "apple just posted the new mbps"
...and im still here:rolleyes:
 
even if the MBP is announced tomorrow, we'll (or at least I'll) have to wait a week or so before people test it out to find whether the heat problems have been solved and etc.
 
We are a sad bunch, aren't we? :)

I think all of us in North America should just go to bed, try to get some sleep.

<<The Mac Obsessive's Prayer>>

And now I lay me down to sleep
And pray for Merom M-B-P
And if no update when I wake
I hope Steve Jobs falls in a lake.

(Sorry, the best I could do at this late hour!)

the press event starts at 10:30 AM EST. i do not think it has yet been confirmed if it is a Stevenote or not.

Well I'm assuming Steve will be talking. Every event I've followed that has had an invitation attached to it usually involves a keynote. I could be wrong... but I hope I'm not. :)

I agree. I am out. Systems Physiology test tomorrow. Must put C2D out of mind.

We're either a sad bunch, or a really SICK group of Mac-lovers! Personally, I think I'll get some shut-eye knowing that there will be an announcement of some kind whether I'm awake or not! Hitting refresh all these hours hasn't gotten me anywhere.

Yeah, I'd like to know how we can find out for sure about an update (if any) tomorrow. Also, I noticed that when our local Apple store closed here in OKC tonight, all the salesmen had a "meeting" in the restaurant next door. May not mean a thing, but come on, it was Sunday night and the store was closed. They looked pretty serious sitting in there, too. Wonder what THAT means? Maybe they were getting ready for big sales tomorrow??


There's a store in OKC now? When did they put that in? Last I looked the closest was Dallas or Wichita, but I do see Penn Sq is listed now. Oh well, still over an hour away.

Here's something interesting though, but it may just be a conicidence.

From the OKC store's calendar, they list from 7p-8p local (CDT):

Aperture: Pro Workshop
See Aperture up close by joining us for special workshops, demonstrations and tips & tricks. Designed from the ground up for professional photographers, Aperture provides everything you need after the shoot. Featuring a RAW-focused workflow, it makes RAW as easy as JPEG, letting you import, edit, catalog, organize, retouch, publish and archive your images more effectively and efficiently than ever before. (Pro Workshop)


Wonder if that will be the new or (by then) old version?


Guess next time I hit town I'll have to go check out the store.
 
Haha, nice job SteveJoobs.

This is my first post. I've registered so that I can share in the pre-MBP update (hopefully!) excitement. I'll be heading out for an hour and a half drive back to school when the news (again, hopefully!) breaks. My credit card will burn a hole in my pocket during class, then I will rush back to the dorm to order my 17" MBP with Merom and a magnetic latch, with a lower price to boot! Hmm, maybe I'm already asleep and dreaming. We can always hope, right? ;) If not, I'll probably just go ahead and order. I'm a switcher just waiting to...umm...flip the switch? :D
