MacDailyNews Note: For rubberneckers, the Wi-Fi issues begin at the 40:10 mark.

I watched it earlier on my iPad. It looked better than on my new MacBook Pro.
Heads will roll.
What? No Flash version?
To many, this will be like the alure of a NASCAR race, watching just for the wrecks.
MDN needs to do some journalism here and find out who was taken to the woodshed for this Microsoft moment.
iTunes download soon I hope.
I expect the next big iMac news to be –
Retina Displays for everything
Apple produced custom silicon for everything
Multi touch for everything
Blu-ray drives for everything
In other words – exactly what Apple has always done. Provide the best technology, coupled with the best user experience, and holding the line on pricing.
As far as the Tech glitch from yesterday goes, my guess would be that the next event will have two official WiFi connection points – one for the bloggers to use and one for Apple to use. No more MiFi connections.
Nice to hear a bit of New Order as the backing track to Steve’s iPad video

iTunes is downloading the podcast of that stream as I type (automatically).
Why can’t I make this play on my MBP?

I can’t imagine how would they handle the prohibition of WiFi access points (MiFi). And to have 570 ACCESS points in the same room is just unimaginable. I can see 570 WiFi client computers (on the same network), but 570 independent networks??? No wonder there was no spectrum for Apple’s official one!
Ironically, they would have likely had more reliable connection using an AT&T 3G connection, since most of those MiFi devices are likely on Verizon…
Why wasn’t the WIFI load anticipated? How ironic…Apple’s own products sowed these glitch seeds weeks/months ago.
While in the scheme of things it’s really not a big deal, Steve’s comments about “people running around backstage” to fix the glitch says more than any speculation can offer.
And the really important news – iPhone 4 has just changed the mobile game (again). The rest of the competition are now officially “running around backstage”.

There was this moment when Steve was having trouble with the WiFi that someone yelled out “Verizon !!!” that had the crowd roaring (even Steve got a kick out of it), but it seems that it’s been edited out.
Steve DID correct said yeller though by pointing out that it was a WiFi connection issue though.
The ‘Verizon’ bit is still in the QT movie I’ve just watched from the link above…
Regarding the WiFi problem:
I have to wonder if someone in the audience wasn’t streaming video out to the net. Somehow I doubt that a bunch of people tossing live text characters out to the net could have bottlenecked the connection.
In any case, I fully expect Apple to stamp this out as a future problem by having their own, locked down, router to a dedicated connection. No access to anyone else.
I also expect Apple will provide a separate Internet connection for everyone else to contend with en masse. It would be a bit foolish to prevent any sort of live coverage of Apple keynotes. The enthusiasm of the moment is part of the Apple charm for addicts and hyper-geeks, such as myself. It is a massive, throbbing marketing tool that goes a long way to giving pleasure and satisfaction.

Many here don’t seem to understand what happened yesterday. It seems that people assume that there was this one WiFi network, and that so many bloggers were using it so that Steve couldn’t get a connection.
That wasn’t the case. There wasn’t just one WiFi network; there were 570 of them !!! It seems that so many people had that little MiFi device (a mobile 3G device that connects to the internet on a mobile wireless network, such as Verizon, and has a built-in wireless router, which provides access to WiFi devices, such as laptops or iPads). With so many WiFi hotspots saturating the wireless spectrum, Steve’s own WiFi simply could not work.
