For some reason, I think this image for their invite is really clever. It’s the standard iOS icons, but they convey all the information of the event. Slick.

I personally like the seven trips to space per employee idea.

Also, poor Eric Schmidt is stuck on the “afterthought corner.”
This was in the beta days of the Reality Distortion Field. Funny stuff.
The thing about Apple is they attend to the details that the vast majority of people don’t even consciously notice, but make the experience simply better. Impressive.

Oh please please please, oh please let this be the new iPad. Honestly more likely to be the Verizon iPhone, but PLEASE BE THE iPAD!!!

Hey every other tech company, if you are in a sector that Apple is in, or might be in in the near future, just give up. You aren’t as good as them. Sell yourselves to them and make some money while you can. Your time is limited. Just a heads up.
I’m not sure this is the best way to go about this. Come to our store, wait outside, and get tickets to go somewhere else. And it’s three doors down from the Apple store. Depending on how the line works, there could be more people sitting looking at Apple products than MSFT ones.
One of my favorite quotes from the article:
Several people interviewed said they were just there for the concert tickets. Esther Erd, from Renton, said, “We’re mostly here for the tickets.” She is eight months pregnant and showed up at 9 a.m. “I’m thinking of buying an iPad for Christmas,” she said.
Only Apple could get away with marketing buttons as a new feature.
