Be here Tuesday for live Macworld coverage
LIVE NOW: coverage of Steve Jobs Macworld Keynote
I've already started doing the dexterity exercises, with less than 24 hours to go before Macworld.
Once again, I'll be providing live blow-by-blow coverage of Apple CEO Steve Jobs' keynote at Macworld on Tuesday, starting at 9 a.m. PST. We expect to see some combination of new laptops, an iTunes movie rental service, iPhone details, and whatever else is trickling out of Cupertino this week.
Live blogs are fun, if a bit demanding on the old fingers. It's always interesting to bring news to people as it happens, I sort of think of it as trying to provide both the play-by-play and the color roles on a football game. I swear I won't morph into Dan Dierdorf ("That was a great Macworld keynote there, Steve is really a great Macworld player, Macworld players know how to make great Macworld plays, and that was a great Macworld play right there).
Apple and IDG World Expo have scheduled the keynote speech for 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., but I'd expect it to run a little longer. Set your browsers here for the news as it happens, and check back with us all day Tuesday as we cover everything there is to cover from San Francisco's Moscone Center.

I switched to Mac a couple years ago and feel like I am being abandoned to the Iphone, Itunes, and the IPod. I look for new software to be available, new mid-grade Macs (currently non-existent) and Mac OSX getting more and more support.. instead I get to hear all the buzz about how I can play music and movies on a phone.
I really want to see Apple being about the Mac or just opening up OSX to run off their hardware if the PC business is only going to be secondary to their Media Distribution business.
I am sure I will be disappointed no matter what the announcement at "ItunesWorld".

updated or improved many times over.
You feel "abandoned" to the iPhone, iTunes and iPod..?
I feel "enhanced" by those devices and software.
Not really excited about a thinner/smaller MacBook either. I'm not terribly concerned about the MacBook/iPhone gap.
Oh, and I don't need any more screen touching, although I'm afraid Steve's kind of hung up on that whole deal.
