How to watch the 10-4 event live?

[Theophany]

Since when did Gizmodo get back on the invite list? IIRC, Engadget & MacWorld are the quickest with photos.

Giz is only back on the invite list because whoever bought the iPhone 4 prototype no longer works there, and afaik that's only for this coming event.

That said, Macworld is generally the fastest.

Same here.
Hope to catch something good on TiPB about it

seriously cant wait to hear the news, my wife's in line for a iPhone 5 but the way its looking i might have to steal it from here and give her my iPhone 4....

I follow live blogs, but only from someone who is actually at the event. It doesn't make any sense to me to follow a live blog by someone who is reading someone else's live blog and retyping or commenting on it.

What time can we expect the live blog? I can hide my phone in my desk drawer while I pretend to be working!

Is this event synchronized to Cupertino, Ca. time? You guys in Aussie are a day ahead of us here in the U.S., right? How about some early feedback on sales impact?

The event is separate from the actual release of the physical phone. That'll happen 1-2 weeks later.

Oz was not one of the first five countries to get the iPhone 4. What do you mean by "sales impact"? Apple is going to sell every single phone they can make for at least the first 3 months. We're talking about something in the 25-30 million range between the release date and the end of 2011. Will that impact sales of Android phones? Only of the high-end versions. Cheap Android phones will still sell well.

I follow the TiPb meta blog live and then watch it on Apple.com that night on my iPad. Thats my routine.

By sales impact, i meant how well they would sell, but you're probably right about them selling out real fast.

IIRC it begins at 10 a.m. Cupertino time, which is prime lunch in my neighborhood. YAY!

Will they also be announcing the carriers (Sprint?) at this event?! Sorry not trying to hijack the thread.

not sure about this.. But I am thinking maybe not. Sprint is having their own even on Oct 7th which probably means that is when they will announce this news about the iPhone.

Every other event has had new carriers announced during the keynote.

According to Apple will NOT stream tomorrow?s iPhone event | 9to5Mac | Apple Intelligence - It won't be streamed live by Apple.

And one more event rumor... will Steve Jobs show? Questions loom over Steve Jobs’ attendance at tomorrow’s iPhone event | 9to5Mac | Apple Intelligence

He will show, but in a Weekend at Bernie's kind of way between Forstall and Ive

Apple doesn't provide a live feed. So they're going to ATTEMPT to patch into a non-existent feed? Puh-leeze. This is a blatant attempt to get people to watch their channel. They'll probably be doing a meta-liveblog where they sit around commenting on what real live bloggers are posting. I'd watch TiPb or TWiT.tv if you want to see that.

Vertex will immediately switch to the keynote, and attempt to patch into a live feed of the proceedings...

then what would be the point of Sprint's big announcement if Apple is going to do it tomorrow?

Specifics, other information about other releases, etc?

All I was saying is that Apple is the most likely source of the carriers the phone will be carried on.

So it gives them some hits...what's the hurt in checking it to see if they got a live feed up around show time and if not, leaving and watching a live blog? It's not going to hurt me at all if they get traffic, even if it is blatantly for the purpose of driving people to the site with no real intention of having the live feed...it's not like we are locked in on their website all day, lol...nobody is twisting arms here to check it out.
