** The MacWorld Expo 2008 Discussion Thread **

They had Audio Streaming last time, but aren't allowed to film, they might get away with it though.

I sense spy camera is needed... Why they can't just put a DIY periscope on the top of their MacBook (pro) and video it live via iChat? (I obviously know there'll be people there to boot them out but still...)
 
I'm just hoping Gizmodo aren't invited :rolleyes:

haha, too true, tell steve jobs to pair his apple remote with his mac before he starts.

I think bandwidth would beome a problem if they streamed video live from the keynote, imagine approx a million people* loggin on from around the world each streaming live video ...

*actual number may vary:p
