Apple is streaming the conference live!
Those of you with superior browsers or Apple devices will be able to watch the conference live this time around!

Simply navigate to http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/1009qpeijrfn/event with either your iOS device or HTML5 compliant browser (Safari and Chrome are likely to be the only ones that work) and watch the events live!

If you can load this properly, you're probably good to go!

If you can't get this sample to work properly, you're probably going to want to find a stream:
http://www.ustream.tv/discovery/live/all?q=apple event
This stream should work.

There is a hack to try and view the conference via VLC detailed here, however even the author isn't so sure if it's going to work properly for a live stream vs. pre-recorded content. Tryer beware.

Expectations

Engadget

Apple TV

* Exclusive: Upcoming Apple TV loses 1080p playback, gains apps, will be renamed iTV
* The next Apple TV revealed: cloud storage and iPhone OS on tap... and a $99 price tag

iTunes

* Apple reportedly in talks with networks for 99 cent TV show rentals
* Yoko Ono regarding Beatles on iTunes: 'Don't hold your breath'

iPod

* iPod touch coming in a 'few weeks' with dual cameras and Retina Display, suggests John Gruber
* Apple iPod touch LCD screen with front-facing camera slot spied?

Everything Else

* New iPhone, iPad model codes set up for iTunes activation bypass -- CDMA versions, maybe?
* Apple's Lala music team working on video streaming service for 2010 launch?

Gizmodo

• New, Facetime-ready iPod Touches? Everyone's been expecting Apple to expand Facetime to other devices, and the iPod Touch, primed for an update, seems like a logical first step. We heard a few months ago that iPod Touches would use email addresses for Facetime calls, and a slew of leaked parts, some more convincing than others, have all shown that the iPod Touch would bear at least a front facing camera.

• A 1.7" touch screen iPod Shuffle? This one seems likely, too, and some accessories have leaked out a bit early, making the very nano iPod Nano seem like a near-certainty.

• The feverishly anticipated cloud-enhanced iTunes? It's sad to say, but a full-on cloud-based iTunes still seems like it might be a ways off. Apparently Apple has not approached record labels about the new licenses they'd likely need to store and serve MP3s from their own severs, and some recent reports have said that tomorrow's iTunes updates are primed to be more social than stream-y.

• 60 second previews for iTunes songs, doubling the length of the current 30 second clips? If so, this is a hint of what's to come with Apple's eventual streaming offerings. Whereas good old Lala gave you a chance to stream the full song once, Apple might only deign to let you hear a minute of a tune for previewing purposes.

• The long-rumored $99 Apple TV? For a while it seemed like an AppleTV update was a lock for tomorrow's event, but the explicitly music-themed event invite suggests that any AppleTV updates in the works might be bumped for another day. Still, rumors are reaching a critical mass and we could well see Apple's new living room play announced on the First.

• 99 cent TV show rentals through Apple TV? While AppleTV hardware seems increasingly unlikely for tomorrow's event—though still a distinct "One more thing" possibility—some sort of video streaming service is possible. CNET heard that the Lala team was working on a some sort of video streaming feature that was holding things up, and it's possible we could hear about that tomorrow. Update: The WSJ says Apple will have 99-cent rentals from ABC and Fox.

Perhaps something that fits in these?!

Getch'r cocks out and your black turtlenecks on, bitches, cause it's going down!

Too early to announce a CDMA iPhone?

 

[Guevara]

Now with [LIMITED] live streaming!

 

[Keyser Soze]

Garageband for iPad!

What do you mean?

I think it is about time Apple finally streams their damn press conferences, I'm sick of shaky cam crap.

I'm intrigued by the new iTV. If it has apps I'll probably 100% get one (since I'm now an app dev).

I am hoping for an iPod classic refresh also.

 

[lunarworks]

I generally go into these with low expectations these days. You won't be disappointed if you're not expecting much.

 

[Keyser Soze]

What do you mean?

They are only streaming to Apple Devices

 

[sixteen-bit]

if they reveal a new iphone, and i got mine less than 30 days ago, i'm good for a trade-up, right?

 

[edgefusion]

Apple TV loses 1080p support? I thought it never had 1080p support? And I am sick of hearing this iTV rumour, it won't be called that.

 

[captmcblack]

I'm running IE8 @ work...theoretically, that link up top should work for me, right?

Chrome is an Apple device?

Try that sample video I posted.

I think you're going to have to use Chrome or Safari if you're able to, otherwise you may be out of luck

Yeah it never had 1080p support. I guess the old output was so good people thought it was 1080p, or they can't tell the difference, or it makes a good bullet point.

Read the OP. Chrome should work fine.

They are... but others are making it possible to bypass it

 

[ultron87]

Will probably have iPod streaming it in front of me at my desk. I hope the new stuff will be enough to justify upgrading my poor Touch with a cracked screen.

 

[Blackhead]

Garageband for iPad!

Mind blown

 

[MIMIC]

WTF is a "retina display"?

 

[The Elite]

:lol

They just released a new iPhone.

If you're talking about the hardware fix, they won't reveal anything. They will just be released when they are ready.

Wishful Thinking: "We've decided to expand the iPhone market by dropping exclusivity with AT&T"

Honestly, that's the one thing keeping everyone I know from buying one.

 

[big_z]

i just want a smaller ipod touch. so much wasted space above and below the screen... trim that off and make it weigh less so it'll be better for running.

Any display from Apple with a pixel density greater than 300ppi.

It's magic.

Guess I'll put the iPhone streaming to the test since I'm at work all day.

Apple's magic phrase for a hi res display on the iPhone 4.

[Futureman]

Even though I don't have an iPad, I really hope they reveal iOS4 for it. I still feel the iPad is a little too "big iPod Touch" right now, stuff like GarageBand for iPad is what it needs from Apple.

And even though I don't even own a TV, interested on seeing the capabilities of the new Apple TV.

 

[SmokyDave]

It's the best kind of magic.

"Everyone"?

You don't know anyone with an iPhone? I work on a college campus, and the iPhone 4 is easily the most popular phone I see.

 

[delirium]

I'm running Chrome 6 beta on Windows. Looks like it isn't working.

 

[LCfiner]

my predictions:

ipod nano-nano at 99 and 150 dollars (8 GB and 16GB) small, touchscreen only device with clicker remote in headphone line for non visual control. no app store, running even further pared down iOS

iTV at 100 dollars with iOS variant. will run specialized apps from hulu, netflix, abc, whatever. will come with 5 way remote included but can use iphone or ipod touch as alternate controller for some games.

ipod touch at 200 dollars (last years 3rd gen model) 300 and 400 dollar versions are in line with iphone 4 tech (cameras, retina display, IPS screen, A4 chip)

iTunes streaming of your home library to your iOS devices over the cloud.

iTunes streaming of TV show rentals (new, 99 cent option) and movies, TV shows you buy to your iOS devices.

iTunes rewritten for Mac in cocoa and supports 64 bit (lol)

iPod classic gets no update but isn't killed.

iPod shuffle gets no update (maybe colors) but isn't killed.


let's see how wrong I am

:lol no doubt all you see is iPhones. In the big-boy adult world people with any sense use Verizon. It's the primary knock against the iPhone, that and better corp. email integration.

Really want iOS 4 for iPad. Don't really see much else doing anything for me.

My brother had one for a while, but he was so sick of never being able to use it as an actual phone that he got rid of it last year. I think a few of my girlfriends' co-workers might have them, but everyone we're friends with seems to have drifted towards Blackberries.

Verizon seems to be the service of choice for just about everyone we know.

 

[kennah]

Yay! Gonna watch this from work!

You guys would definitely be an anomaly, at least anecdotally.

Really? I don't see anyone but me with Iphones anymore. All I ever see are other brands of smart phones.

Yeah, really. We get a Verizon discount at my company, and there are still plenty of iPhones around the office.

 

[Guevara]

How old are you? Serious question. Almost everyone I know has a Blackberry paid for by work on a Verizon (or other) corporate account. A few people have iPhones in addition as their personal phone. I know that I for one could probably convince our I.T. department to allow iPhones if they came to Verizon. Half those dudes already have iPhones (or Androids). Even some of the older partners have been asking if we can go iPhone.
