At least they're high definition bars

Oh, back

"as you know, we're just down the road from apple's birthplace"
blah blah blah
macintosh launched 30 years ago, then imac, then my stream cut out
17:06
Someone in a truck is cursing
back
"i'm gonna get started by talking about the car"
then my stream froze again
i think he said car but maybe i misheard because now he's talking about iphones
#1 smartphone in the world, most loved smartphone blah blah

Gonna be interesting how 'analysts' decide the terrible streaming means apple is dying
here we go...
are any of you able to watch the live stream?
"biggest advancement in iphone"
what's happening guys?
17:08
@DanielBeck me, but it's terrible

even iPhone 6 is too big for me
326 & 401 ppi
+ as in "plus-size"?
I suppose
i can barely reach the whole screen on one hand with my 5
hitting chat ratelimits.
Someone respond to that tweet and point them to this room.
17:13
one of iPhone's strengths in my opinion was that it didn't succumb to the BIGGER IS OBVISLY BETTER trap that most smartphone companies fall into
6.9mm and 7.1mm.
better colors, blah blah blah
yeah blah blah
screen is bigger, so more stuff shows :P
oh neat.

17:47
"ApplePay"
Video of it.
yup, NFC with Touch ID
ever since i got this busted page the stream has been perfect
@Undo I used to get ApplePay :-)
@abbyhairboat I got that too but it didn't work for me :(
Cue up
so this is just an app that has all your credit card info that can be tapped on one of those NFC reader things
god, that SHIRT

17:49
yup, nfc
@abbyhairboat ... it's tech :P

@abbyhairboat Passbook is huge for people that don't have a big tech background.
17:54
really?
@abbyhairboat only if they can sell it to people making these things.
:/
neat
what about online payments from desktop (not from phone)?
@abbyhairboat they haven't talked about the mac yet.
But I bet this involves iCloud Keychain, which is on the Mac.
it must be fun to be an adoption exec at apple
Yup. And with people that travel a bit via air. The boarding pass / security speedup is quite substantial over paper.
17:55
wander around to MLB and whole foods and bully people into adopting your tech
I still prefer cash
@bmike I love it, the rare times I travel
Next month. Free iOS 8 update
