Apple to live stream September 1 special music event

UPDATE: Here's the link to the whole event on Apple.com

Throwing caution -- and bandwidth! -- to the wind, Apple has just announced that tomorrow, for the first time in recent memory, they'll be live streaming one of their keynote events:

Apple® will broadcast its September 1 event online using Apple’s industry-leading HTTP Live Streaming, which is based on open standards. Viewing requires either a Mac® running Safari® on Mac OS® X version 10.6 Snow Leopard®, an iPhone® or iPod touch® running iOS 3.0 or higher, or an iPad™. The live broadcast will begin at 10:00 a.m. PDT on September 1, 2010 at www.apple.com.

No word on Windows, Linux, Android, webOS, or any other kind of compatibility, so have your Apple gear ready. TiPb will be following along and providing our usual commentary and color so if you plan on watching, come watch along with us.
