This is one of the few Mondays during the year that I actually look forward too.

Darn, I forgot to include "2008" in the title. Will a Mod help out?

You can edit your title for the first 10 minutes.
And this official/unofficial joke os starting to get old.
When is the keynote anyway?

Mondays do suck. Every day I have a bunch of reports to go through and on Monday I have to do three times the work because of the weekend. I dislike Monday for that sole reason.
Taking the day off for the stevenote is pointless nowadays since they don't stream it live anymore. Back when they did I wasn't working (full time student) and used to hook up the laptop to the TV. Now we get to follow macrumorslive.com and watch the keynote when it gets uploaded.

There's something in the air... does that mean Apple is finally releasing Smell-O-Vision?

It says 'watch the keynote tuesday afternoon at apple.com' on.. apple.com.
I guess there won't be a live stream, but they'll put the keynote up as soon as possible.

I was actually just reading that, and was hoping Apple decided to stream it like the old days.

Have you noticed there has not been a live keynote in several years? I think Steve Jobs may have died, or perhaps he is living on a tropical island, and all of these keynote videos are just composited from old keynotes.
The man on stage in the press photographs is just a lookalike, like the one that replaced Paul McCartney.

It is kind of strange, every blogger and their brother posts live updates to their site - but will Apple just stream it live? No, the probably just want to milk the strange tactics people go through to get in. We now know people line up the night before to get in.

From CNBC story:
Steve Jobs' Macworld Speech Leaked Or Big Hoax? - Tech Check with Jim Goldman - MSNBC.com
Among the highlights: Jobs will begin with an iPod/iTunes sales update, saying "iPod has been extremely profitable for us this holiday season... Our new models are doing better than ever." He'll say today: 30 indie labels releasing their entire catalogs in iTunes Plus.
About the iPhone: Best iPod ever; sales beyond our wildest dreams; much more than the 1 percent market share we asked for in January; starting today: 8GB $399, 16GB $499; four times the memory as original iPhone for the same price; iPhone is coming to Japan in March with NTT DoCoMo. Jobs will also unveil the software developers kit for the iPhone allowing third party software creators to write their own applications for iPhone, something the developer community has been clamoring for. With Apple splitting the revenue 70/30 in their favor.
On the Mac side, Jobs will say that sales are getting better and better every day with Leopard selling extremely well; estimated to overtake Tiger in terms of marketshare by June if you only count the new Macs that come with it preinstalled; even quicker if you include boxed copies. Version 10.5.2 will be out today.
On the new MacBooks: Completely aluminum body like MacBook Pro; 13" screen at 1440x900; two colors: Black and Silver; looks gorgeous at 0.8" thin; a major feat of engineering - patents abound; DVD drive pops open on side when eject button is pressed; new on all notebooks and iMac: iSight HD (720p); new backlit keyboard based on recent Apple Keyboard revisions (keys slightly lighter than that of laptop casing, colorwise); new matching MagSafe cable; new matching Apple Remote (slightly smaller with larger overall buttons); Intel GMA X3100 graphics; 3 models, completely phasing out the combo drive on all product lines today; BTO models can upgrade all the way to 2.6GHz/4GB Memory/320GB hard drive; 4.5 hours of battery life; starting at $1199.
His "One More Thing": a new partnership with YouTube and iTunes.

Does anyone know if MacNN will be going down for the duration?
I swear it stayed up for an event it usually goes down for last year.

If that is a real leak heads will roll in Apple campus.
It is hard to believe for a second that *any* Apple employee would be stupid enough to cross Steve like that.

That "one more thing" is kinda lame if the leak is true.

Is anyone live blogging it this year? As far as I can tell MacNN and AppleInsider aren't (or at least I can't find where they are).

I am very happy with the upgraded iPhone. I also like the MacBook Air, although the name is not the greatest. But who cares, it's a nice thin computer. I'll get one after I get my tax refund.
