Is there any way to download the keynote and save part of it. I'd love to see a clip of just Steve Jobs getting pissed and tossing the camera. If someone was able to do this, please put it up on a webpage or something. This would be a great MWNY souvenoir. Thanks

I don't think he was pissed. Didn't he just throw it so he didn't have to walk it offstage?

He was not mad, he was just showing off that if he had broken the camera, he would have had to pay it with his petty cash.

I bet heads rolled in NY afterwards regarding that...
...whether its to be blamed on Steves technical ineptitude, a flat battery, the un-user friendliness of (Sony?) products (couldn't see, the video quality was crap), or the guy that didn't tell him how to use it properly...
Hehe.

looked like a kodak... a DC3400 I reckon. I watched the keynote on tech tv and had to put up with the commentators coming in every fifteen minutes with: "doesn't look like there's anything new... let's get back to the coverage". It was almost humorous at six in the morning

I think he was just tossing it off stage to a guy who was supposed to catch it... but he missed.
You should be able to download the keynote from Apple's website. If not now, in the near future.

Steve did toss the camera to a guy in the front row. And I think the guy caught it and left.....

I was there. . . sort of. I was watching the keynote in another room. Steve was absolutely pissed. He threw the camera to some guy in the front (obviously an Apple guy involved with the keynote) but he threw it with anger and the batteries fell out because he threw it so hard. Hoo I know that? because Steve even said it. Steve was pissed. You could hear it in the tone of his voice. He was pissed when he came back to try it again and he thought it didn't work again.
I've seen that same demo done at an OS X road show. They guy had the same problem. He had to come back later to do it again. I had a feeling that would happen. . .

Maybe this one is the chance for Apple employees to sue and fire their evil dictator... if the camera had fell on the employee's head, that's sueable.

Man Steve was DEFINATELY PISSED with that camera. Lucky he was on stage or I get the feeling he would have exploded. It was actually kind of funny to me to watch him steam like that!
Still I can understand how I would be pissed if I were on stage trying to present and something went wrong. He was actually pretty cool about it, apologizing for knocking the batteries out and admitting that he shouldn't have thrown it.
Shame on whoever makes that camera, it's obviously crap! I predict Apple will be selling it's own digital camera that is actually easy to use within six months!
