10:36 AM: John Biggs Dasorryddyo it’s an unlocked iPhone.
10:52 AM: John Biggs Sorry. Testing email. Still sitting on the floor waiting.
10:52 AM: John Biggs How is the stream?
10:53 AM: DannyD Ustream is great, but it is just so choppy. I´m from Germany and the stream is interrupted about every other second… is it my Connection or the iPhone`s that is “crap”
10:53 AM: Kirill Just wanted to say thanks for doing this guys.
10:53 AM: Ross Will you be streaming live inside?

11:36 AM: John Biggs
11:36 AM: John Biggs
11:36 AM: John Biggs There is the new QuickTime Logo.
11:37 AM: John Biggs
11:38 AM: John Biggs
11:38 AM: John Biggs the old logo
11:38 AM: John Biggs
11:38 AM: John Biggs new one
11:40 AM: mapplemike Can’t wait to see what they say at WWDC. Apple employees are the biggest junkies of them all.
11:40 AM: bgertzfield According to the weirdo walking the WWDC line, I am male number 776. The nice lady behind me is female number 43!
11:40 AM: John Biggs Hey guys – we’re outside the keynote room right now w/ folks from Phonescoop, Laptop, Engadget; everyone’s here. Sorry the live feed went down, not a whole lot we can do about that.
11:41 AM: John Biggs Vincent Nguyen just took a horrible picture of me, as I thought it was video. Thanks, Vincent.
11:42 AM: Monik (etiole.com) why has the video gone off air?
11:42 AM: John Biggs Limited WiFi, No 3G. Simply not enough bandwidth. Plus – they’ll eat our face if we stream inside.
11:48 AM: John Biggs We’ve got power! Power is rare here. It’s like soil in waterworld.
11:49 AM: John Biggs We’re about 90% sure there’s no power inside. There *does* seem to be WiFi – which is incredible. Great chance that the WiFi will die as soon as we get inside, be it by apple’s doing or the weight of a million geeks all trying their damnedest to liveblog
11:51 AM: John Biggs
11:51 AM: John Biggs I wish John Biggs would hold my laptop for me while I typed:-(
11:52 AM: John Biggs Apple store is down. Everybody panic!
11:54 AM: John Biggs We’re still in line. The mood is generally light, everyone’s drinkin’ the Odwallas and eatin’ the scones Apple provided. If you need something to do, go prep your bingo cards: www.crunchgear.com
11:56 AM: Greg Kumparak The past 10 liveblog snippets have all been a lie. I didnt realize I was logged in as Biggs.
11:59 AM: Greg Kumparak Surprisingly, the room doesn’t smell too bad yet. It is a big room, though.
12:00 PM: Greg Kumparak
12:00 PM: Greg Kumparak There are probably around 150 media folk waiting outside the keynote room. There’s no obvious line. There never is, really. It’s just a big pile of madness.
12:01 PM: Greg Kumparak If you missed it in the earlier live broadcast, the first line dwellers had been here since 3 am.
12:02 PM: @michaelowens The first person in line got there at 5:30p the night before, actually.
12:02 PM: Greg Kumparak Yeesh. Missed’em. Way to go, 5:30pm trooper. Hope you enjoy the show.
12:04 PM: @iAppTime So will you be recording the keynote live on the Ustream?
12:05 PM: Greg Kumparak Unfortunately not; Apple nixed that from the start, and reiterated that it was disallowed when we were getting our badges.
12:13 PM: Greg Kumparak Looks like broadcast guys get to go in first, then the rest of media, then general WWDC goers.
12:13 PM: Dip Greg are people out there betting on Steve Jobs making an appearance?
12:14 PM: Greg Kumparak Lots of debates about that, as is to be expected.

12:17 PM: Greg Kumparak Absolutely – as long as we can keep a connection up, we’ll keep updating the feed.

12:20 PM: Dip Wonder how many people out there in Moscone are carrying the “pre”? Do you see any among those who are near you?
12:20 PM: Greg Kumparak Its only media around us, so it’s a Pre/iPhone bananza.
12:24 PM: Greg Kumparak If you’re wondering, it’s starting to smell horrible.
12:25 PM: Greg Kumparak Everyone’s starting to get cranky.
12:27 PM: Greg Kumparak
12:27 PM: Greg Kumparak That logo to the lower left of “Mac” – we’re not familiar with it. Anyone ever seen it?
12:27 PM: Greg Kumparak It reads “GCD”, and looks like a stoplight.
12:28 PM: Ender is it the new OSX Grand Central?
12:28 PM: Tim “Getting Crap Done”… must be an Apple implementation of the GTD.
