WWDC 2008 Keynote Coverage Live

I'm not sure which is worst...

1) The wait before the keynote

2) The first half hour where he rambles on about recent sales and how many billions of songs iTunes Store has shipped

3) Getting news about super cool gadgets through crummy typo-laden text updates
 
Has any one been able to sneek back to the elevator. I heard that Steve was spotted back there opening boxes.
 
Australia Here

It's a lovely 12:30am here, and 10am there is not until 2:30 here...
IM SO EXCITED!
A bit of Wee Came Out!:eek:
:confused:

It's all part of the experience. I love it!

What do you mean "goes down"?

Like someone accidentally hits the jobs switch and he powers down right on stage.

Or maybe he's like the Apple online store. He has to go down for updates for a bit before announcing new products.

Hah! You free-settlin' Sarf Ostralians and your half hour. 1:12am in a real time zone here.
 
I forgot to ask, anyone at WWDC have a Nokia Symbian phone so we can get a live Qik broadcast?

Let's start now! Dang!!! Is that all?!?! Just a 3G, cheaper iPhone2 with GPS and video conferencing, along with an iTablet and upgraded Macbook Touch? What kind of keynote is that? :eek:

Naa....its been out for a week now, if it was going to be a WWDC anouncement they would have launched it today, not last week IMHO

Wow those would be great!!
 
One thing that will hurt me today if there are any new products available for immediate sale will be my empty wallet after I go bonanza!! :D

1) I think it's a hurts so good kind of thing. It's hard to wait, but I like the anticipation.

2) I think it would be worse if he left sales figures until the end, don't you? "One more thing: iTunes sales have gone up 10%. Boom!"

3) Can you imagine how hard the servers would be hurt if there was live video or audio streaming of the keynote, whether it was apple.com, macrumors.com, or anywhere that did it? Apple's arguably the hottest company on the planet right now. It's frustrating to me too not to get to see it live, but I'm very thankful we have the updates at macrumors.

Imagine when he wakes up in a hospital bed only to find he's been fitted with a pacemaker that runs on Windows Embedded.
