WWDC part 0

well, here it is, the pre-WWDC "I'm jetlagged so you have to put up with my wittering" post. I'm just waiting for a softwareupdate to finish so that I can go out with my camera, taking some early-morning pictures before heading off to stand in line for the Stevenote. I was out for beers with Ian and Neil last night, we'd all heard rumours of a 5 a.m. start to the queue. On the two previous occasions that I've been, 9 a.m. has been sufficient; but with the sellout nature of the event it's likely that the room will fill up rather quickly so we've compromised on a 7 a.m. start. Actually, forget the 5 a.m. nonsense, there's a line of overnight campers - I can't decide whether they're deliberately trying to re-enact a Joy of Tech cartoon, or actually have nothing to do with their lives.
