Round about the same time as the Apple Car.
I expect at least a $50,000 band with my $199,000 Apple Watch Edition. That, or this product is simply won't be able to deliver.

Such a device has been rumored for a while I think but I'm mostly just making fun of the post I quoted.

After the Apple Car, I just need the Apple House and I'm set.

Yup, you can copy the URL for the stream into VLC, we won't know the URL for sure until the stream starts.

If you got an iPhone or iPad you have Safari, if not Apple doesn't want your business apparently but in Windows you *might* be able to use VLC.

What a twist!
Not updating a product that nobody uses to support HTTPS streaming is not considered spending money to keep people away in my book. If you remember recent streams, they have trouble keeping up with demand as is.

That's not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about how they limit it to the Safari version 0.0.3 versions after the last version of Windows Safari - I seriously doubt there's anything in those 0.0.3 updates that enables these live streams, they just had someone set the limits on the stream to keep Windows users away.
they want your business. they just don't care if you can't watch the livestream of an event. if that means they don't get your business, that's another matter. I suspect the combination of those two things affects such a small audience, that Apple has no reason to change their streaming solution anytime soon.
Thanks, will try this.
Yep, seems like Apple don't want to convince me with their keynotes to buy their products. Strange.

what if the new apple spaceship hq is a prototype for the apple car/house?
Those who already have get priority. Not that hard to figure out.

Iphone/Ipad user here, and I'm not very excited about the Watch at the moment. Hoping apple changes my mind today or surprises with new ipad info.
No, even back then the Windows version did not support HTTP Live Streaming while the same version Safari on OS X did. The 5.1.10 requirement is just a security requirement.

I don't think Apple could announce functionality that they haven't already show that would make someone uninterested in the watch change their opinion.
someone on the fence, yes. I could see some specific app demo make em go "cool, i want it now". but if there'a already no interest? nah, I don't think today will change anything. they've already revealed the main functionality and the design of the watch

I haven't done a ton of research but will the apple watch test blood glucose levels?
edit: looks like dexcom is working on a real time app. Sweet.

That's what I'm trying to dream too (42mm). Somehow I don't think it'll be coming true.

GET HYPE!
the watch won't have glucose sensors. if they're working on an app it's for some other hardware device.

I actually prefer rubber or plastic bands to metal ones for smart watches. Something about classic metal style bands with a watch face like Apples just strikes me as odd.

Yeah, I worded it poorly sorry. There is no way apple would want to deal with Class III medical stuff that comes with glucose monitors.

I've started feeling the same way about smart watches that try and mimic classic watch faces.

Yeah. It's like this is some back to the future type shit and I want people to know it!
Never buy v1 Apple Spaceship, they'll only make it smaller.
I always avoid 1st gen and 3rd gen Apple products myself.

Any idea how long this one'll be? I gotta figure out when to take my lunch to maximize my non-work video time (also, hopefully the Apple Watch info will all be front-loaded, with MacBook fun coming after)

I'm guessing 2 hours.
Do you mean the iPad Pro? I think that's just supposed to be a big iPad. MacOS functionality would be amazing though.
I don't understand words like "disgusting" used for charging a premium. If people want to pay it, that's their prerogativeif they're fools, well, they lose their money faster. Apple has made its money not by charging $30 for bumpers or selling $1000 "silver audio cables", but for charging a few hundred more for nice hardware and a nice operating system.
Was perfect for me for the last one, Air 2 I think.

Hopefully not full-on Chinese lady like the iPhone stream.
Eh, it's not about iPhones, I think they have a good chance of keeping it up.

Or it will have the opposite effect and traditional luxury watches will become more expensive.

Any guides on how to watch the stream btw?
Also I'm staying over 4am for this so it better be good apple.

Go to apple.com on your Apple device or click on the icon on your Apple TV. Or wait for someone to post a link that you can use in VLC if you're using a PC.

Whatever happened to the Apple TV set that's been heavily rumoured forever?
