live.twit.tv

is currently showing a video feed from the event which is frowned upon so lets see how long that lasts until Apple security tracks them down and kicks them out.

It's not really apples style to combine big announcements. I think all we are going to get from this regarding the iphone are implications that it will be available on Verizon.

Heh..

A laptop manufacturer should throw in a cell phone radio and include a headset.

That would be a lot more practical and probably cheaper too.

I was hoping for a MacBook Pro update. Rumors are saying the i5 is coming to the MBP so I've been holding out.

I have to agree. My iPhone replaces my laptop a lot when I'm at home. Even sitting on the couch watching tv. I check email, browse the web, and add reminders / notes of things I want to do as I think of them. Would I like something just a little larger to do that with that can essentially just live on the coffee table? You betcha.
