MacRumors.com MWSF Keynote Coverage

The Keynote is approaching. If you are not at the keynote itself, have a satellite dish or at an Apple Store that is hosting the event, here are your best bets for up to the minute info.

Live Webcast

Apple's official Webcast - This video feed is your best bet to get the full "Keynote Experience". Requires Quicktime. A fast connection helps.

IRC - Internet Relay Chat

In order of preference (please choose only one):

1) If you have an IRC Client, point it to server: irc.newnet.net channel: #macrumors for moderated Keynote updates, and channel #macrumorschat for live keynote discussion. If for some reason you can't get on newnet.net, join irc.krono.net #macrumors (but only as an alternative choice)

2) If you do not have an IRC Client or do not know how to configure one, choose one of the following options

a) Java IRC Chat - This Java-based client will also allow you to watch, but not participate.
b) MRChat 1.0.1 (Mac OS X download) - will allow you to watch updates, but will not allow you to chat during the event.

Live website updates

Live updates will also be provided on MacRumors.com. https://www.macrumors.com will direct you to the proper location when the time approaches.
