Probably going to happen, everyone should expect a big price tag for it though. Unless Apple have had some serious thinking in the passed couple of months and its an ideal price. :P

Maybe they'll announce actual competitive pricing with HP Acer and Toshiba. If that happens goodbye Microsoft.

Some Apple products are outrageously expensive.

OS 4.0 just what I need, even more deprecated code. Actually ill be excited to see what they add to it because I can't really think of much that will warrant a full software version apart from maybe multitasking.

According to a lot of sources yes but the event hasn't started yet. It starts at 6PM. see: http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/27/l...reation-event/

Read some rumours it'll be around $800 in the US on contract with Verizon, I assume that's overall and it would include airtime/internet access. Or $1000 directly from Apple themselves?

Add on the UKs "Apple Tax" and we're looking at £550-800.

They probably wont go inside but TWiT is going to take a portable streaming rig, you can view their stream starting at 17:00 at: http://live.twit.tv

EDIT: THEY'VE STARTED!!!!!!!!

http://live.twit.tv

Edit2: If you can't see the conference centre, don't worry. They're going back and forth between their studio and the event.

But the event doesn't start for another hour doesn't it?

edit: the girl in that thing just asked if it's going to run Android. She seems quite smart :|

Dr Kiki did? She's not a very techie person tbh, she's a host which they hired to give Leo some time off when he needed it.

Also they're talking with people outside the event

Edit: Oh, that might of been when they were making joke guesses such as it will have an inbuilt hotplate to keep coffee warm or w/e.

Are they broadcasting a live stream from the event itself or just this phone line thing?

Bob Dylan is pretty awesome to be honest, it's a good choice of music. Oh and music is getting louder, 'Like a rolling stone' is an awesome song.

Right now it's just phone, they may whip out the camera on the laptop soon though. Wi-Fi is out atm though

Edit: AMGZ, Clapping n' stuff this is awesome!

I think this is a joke, it's the worst name and it's the obvious design. I reckon that steve is just going to whip out another device in a bit.
