Live Post As We Listen To The Wwdc '07 Keynote

[WTEngel]

So I am setting up this thread for those of us listening live to the keynote address live to post big news and happenings during the keynote. This way anyone who can't connect on the server or who cannot listen at work can read the updates as we post them.

I figure we can start by posting quotes and other big information from the keynote, and once someone has announced on the thread that the keynote is over, we can begin discussing the specific points brought up in the keynote under new threads that are appropriately titled and categorized etc. Sound good to everyone?

Sounds good to me, but I bet Steve, if he says anything about the iPhone, won't say it until the very end.

I'm game.

What the heck, we will post it whether it is iPhone related or not, that way the folks can discuss it in the appropriate threads later...

Wouldn't it be easier just to go to MacRumors?

Yep. Glad I logged on at 12:30 instead of 12:45. The servers already maxed out.

Damn! The music went off for about five seconds. I thought we were starting up. There it goes again. We're live!

 

[WTEngel]

Alright, the music has stopped, I can hear random voices now...sounds like things are fixing to begin

I hope it gets better than this.

 

[WTEngel]

It might be easier to go to Macrumors, but it is cooler to say we have live updates on EIP!

Not too bad right now. I can hear Steve's welcome.

PC guy in video dressed as Steve Jobs with jeans and mock turtle neck.

 

[WTEngel]

I am using my Shure headphones, I can hear it alright, but yeah, it does suck...
