MWSF 2005 pictures?

[Daveway]

Has anyone taken pictures inside or near the convention center? Usually we start to see pictures of covered banners and booths around this time.

I don't really expect to see any until we get closer to next weekend. That is when they will be busy getting the Moscone Convention Center Ready. Although we don't get to see much, Apple always has sheets over there stuff.

Many of us here are hanging out for the broadcast of the Keynote. I for one will be waking up at 3am (Sydney Australia Time) to watch, and make sure that I can stream over Wireless. Should be good. "Redmond start your photocopiers'!

Is that the time it will be on? I may just have to wake up for work early on Monday. 😛 When you say that you have to make sure that you can stream over wireless, what do you mean. Do you have to be connected to the streaming server so you get a place?

Well, it's the weekend....... any updates?

Surely someone here from SF can sneak over there and just look around...right? Come one guys. 😀

Trust me, you won't see anything more than banners shrouded in black cloth, and if you're able to sneak into the exhibits hall during the setup (I managed it one year), an Apple booth surrounded by curtains with one entrance guarded by a big burly guy who exudes "don't mess with me." Apple security won't even let you get near the entrance to the ballroom.

You'd have to be very stealthy (and presumably willing to risk arrest) to get a look at anything before Steve says "alakazam!"

Anything is possible. Look at the guy that got into Prince Andrews Birthday party last year at the Royal Palace. The trick would be to also have a camera unless you are a 007 type. I am surprised that we haven't at least seen pictures at the Moscone Center. 😀

Like I said, it might be possible, if you're willing to get arrested in the attempt. Nobody's managed it yet though and I suspect it isn't for lack of trying. I'm surprised I got as far as I did a couple of years ago, but still I saw nothing.
