At today's keynote, Steve Jobs announced "Time Capsule." It's a full Airport Extreme base station that also includes a "server-grade hard drive." It is meant for wireless backups for notebooks. Time Capsule runs on 802.11n.

The 500gb drive version is only $299. The 1 terrabye model is $499. It will ship in February. "It's the perfect companion product to Time Machine."

We're here and we're live! The show got started a little late, but it's still on, baby!

We won't be fully liveblogging every moment, but we'll be doing a big new post for every big new anouncement. Stay tuned! Steve is on stage now! He's looking back at 2007, talking about the iMac, the iPods, and "of course the revolutionary iPhone."

4 things to talk about today.

It happens every year lately - a day or two before the big Keynote, some tiny site¹ claims to have the outline of what Steve Jobs will announce. The supposed goods on the iPhone: 16gb at $499 (really going on a limb there), arrival in Japan in March, and the unveiling of the SDK. A full unveiling, actually, with lots of details.

All of which are pretty safe bets.

After the jump: the full supposed outline. Give it credit for being realistic -- heck, give it credit for being boring. But do not, we hope, give it credit for beingreal.

¹ Yes, we are a tiny site as well and we know you thought it earlier. Be Nice.

A little non-iPhone news:

iPhone wielding Slingbox owners will soon be able to view their favorite smutty Spice Channel content on iPhone screens, if rumors are true. A site that goes by the charming name Electric Pig (I prefer my swine without rectal power adapters thank you very much) claims to have spoken with one of the higher ups at Sling Media, who went on record as saying that a version of its popular Slingplayer for mobile devices is in development right now.

Sweet. Now I can watch all my favorite episodes of Gilligan's island while driving down the freeway. Zoom Zoom.

Update: Huzzah and hooray! Chat away!

All of our sister sites have put up the word so we may as well too -- our forums have crashed just a tiny bit but we're working hard to bring them back up. In the meantime, I'll note that the amount of iPhone news to be had here at CES amounts to precisely bupkiss, and I've been looking. Like the Mac Pro announcement, I think this bodes well for iPhone news at Macworld next week!
