I repeat: nowhere on that page does it say they'll literally be streaming the keynote
I'd think they'd say it if they were.
I ordered my 27" last week but it hasn't shipped yet course I ordered it with the i7. I hope I don't have to pay for it. The Mac rep was cool about it and said he'd take care of me re: Lion. He also got me a discount on a AppleCare down to $84 or close to that.
Its says they'll be going live at 03:30PM - London and its already 4:01pm
Is it working for anyone else yet?
It was streaming two blokes talking about what they expect is going to be announced but they've now gone off air because they had to join the queue to get in.
But Will it Sync to a non-iPhone?
The biggest issue for me is syncing to a non-iPhone. I am currently using a Pre. I am a Verizon customer so before very recently an iPhone was not even an option. But over the last year I've become quite accustomed to WebOS and, while the implementation is not as elegant as iOS (and acquisition of Palm by HP gives me little hope it will keep pace), it's still better (in my view) than Android.
(HP was unforgivably late in seeking a licensing deal with Nokia, but that's another story.)
In any case, until the data plans for iPhones are competitive with Android and other non-iOS devices, I will get an iPhone only reluctantly ... but right now, syncing contacts (I don't even care that much about music syncing) and calendars from a Mac (or MobileMe) is a huge hassle.
The iCloud would seem to suggest that Apple wants to make it easier for non-Mac owners to use iPhones. All I want is the other side of that coin: make it easier for non-iPhone users to use Macs.

both cameras say 'off air' .... but they anyway won't broadcast the keynote, so no big loss.
"That's right, for the first time we're bringing you a live video feed straight from San Francisco, the heart of Apple's big summer event. What will Apple unveil, when will it ship, and what does it all mean? Tim and Darren will help you figure it all out. Just make sure you click "Play" to start the video."
Video implies alot
If you can wait another half an hour, CNN.com is streaming the keynote. Somebody with the necessary powers should add this link to the first page.
Video implies alot
Yes, it implies there will be video.
But that's not the part I'm questioning.
Lots of those people are developers so waiting in line for new announcements and going to the classes is their life and their job.
telling peeps to get a life...when you will be tuning in via online? sounds like you need to get a life also. I'll tune in later and read AFTER since i'll be working when they are announcing it.

Wouldn't be surprised if Lion was made available via MAS by week end.

Youre right...what was I thinking
Im sure the video will display textual blog entries with some totally awesome transition effects.
Apologist, nothing more.
I got a good nights sleep last night. Those maroons slept on concrete. But you knew what I meant.

Answer me this: Why are they claiming theirs is live and yet CNN is delaying half an hour?
What's the reason for CNN's delay? (My guess is Apple's forcing them.) And why is Engadget not being delayed? (My guess is they're not actually showing the keynote.)
If your theory is different than mine then you need to explain the difference between CNN and Engadget because I can't think of anything else to explain it.

In fairness, I think what that is is simply Engadget will be streaming (read:broadcasting) live from WWDC, rather than Engadget actually showing the conference live....
