“Apple has begun prepping the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and appears to be placing large banners on the side of the building to mimic the invitations sent out last week,” Arnold Kim reports for MacRumors.
Apple’s media event will take place on January 27th at 10 a.m. Pacific time
MacRumors reader Samuel Powell sent in a photo of the Yerba Buena Center being prepped for the event. See it here.
MacDailyNews Note: Send photos to , San Franciscans!
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Lynn W.” for the heads up.]
I just walked by the building and caught a view of a new iPhone poster.
It will be good to have a positive event Wednesday morning to focus on. Might take my mind off the State of the Union Address to follow that night.
@HeavyD
Where’s the photo???

I’ve been prepping myself for this moment since 2007.
It is really going to be big – a big shift in computing is here.
I’ve been posting messages on that on MDN for the last 3 years.
Apple will consolidate its lead over every other companies; starting Wed.
I’m on market & golden gate ave. I work at the building and a couple of guys slipped up and exposed for a moment a poster showing the tablet. I took a picture with my phone. I’m not giving it up unless i get some cash money. I want at least $1000. Meet me on this corner and approach me . I’ll be wearing a scarf tucked into my jacket
Mark Armstrong…
Well done, 16 minutes to poison the well from the time MDN put the article up to your post.
Jeez, I thought that was Apple’s Manhattan store for a minute.
If this really is about a tablet, instead of, “Come see our latest creation,” they should have made it, “Come touch our latest creation.”
makes the front of the building look snappier..
@ MC CFR:
The state of our Union is pretty bad, no matter which side of the aisle you call home. So unless the message is fairy tales and sugar plums, it has to be a downer.
It requires a large amount of Astroglide. Don’t ask, do tell?
@ Jim
I’ll meet you at midnight. I’ll be wearing a red dress with a blue rose on it, and I’ll say “The eagle is in my soup”, to which you will reply “It’s a cold day for pontooning”. I’ll leave the money in front of The Triton hotel in a pink D&G;handbag.
“The eagle is in my soup”
You have a real talon for that.
Is that Jim’s scarf or is he just glad to see C1?
It must be one of those endless clown scarves.
You could ask Scott.
Too obscure?
Apple, willl release on this day of days …….the KINDLE KILLER! (how come we havent heard that yet? LOL)
Yerba Buena. Clearly, Apple is trying to distance itself from the disastrous failures they’re about to unveil.
@ Ampar
I don’t even know what language that one was.
ALBATROSS!!!!
Oh wait, I get it… That was a Way-Homer.
That one was too obtuse even for me… and people who know me say I’m really obtuse. wait…
I heard it, like 2 months ago. The thing is, Amazon already knows this, and they don’t care. They’ll sell books for iPhone, Zune, Android, whatever. If there’s an SDK, there will be a Kindle App, and thus, Amazon can make lots of money off the tablet.
Do you really think Amazon wants to be designing hardware to compete against Jonathan Ive?
“If this really is about a tablet, instead of, “Come see our latest creation,” they should have made it, “Come touch our latest creation.”
Yeah, but then the first Apple Fanboy that touched the Tablet would be instantly brought to his sudden demise by
a) Apple Security
b) Steve Jobs’ death gaze
c) Those ghosts from Raiders of the Lost Arc that melt your face
You can have my Kindle when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.
If Apple releases a tablet, sign me up. But not as a replacement for my Kindle. Somehow I doubt it can go 2 weeks on a single charge or spare my eyes unless it is some kind of e-ink device.
