iPad case maufacturers have been making cases for the iPad 5 to be available upon release based largely on speculation and educated guesses. None of them have been given specs from Apple.

If they are right then they stand to make a lot of money from early iPad 5 purchasers. If they are wrong then, well, oops….and fuck you consumer.

no worries there... the profit margin on those pieces of rubber is probably through the roof. when you can purchase a product with a price range between $1.12 - $29.99 + $2.94 shipping on Amazon it sends a clear message on the value of said product.

What if it was just Tim announcing that he's engaged and introduces his fiance who tells his life story for a half hour?

That would just be Tim innovating the keynote.

Fuggit I got half a jug of wine so I'll just play like a bored housewife!
But yeah I'm looking forward to a Mini Retine with all the 5S goodies.
If that comes out I'll finish the jug and run around outside butt-naked, with my arms up, just like you see at the end of a special olympics ad.

I’m going to be pissed if the new iPads are available for order or preorder right when the keynote is over. I don’t want to deal with that mess while I’m at work. It better be like midnight on a Thursday or some shit. I can manage that.
Now enjoy the next 43 mintues of Apple patting itself on the back for previous accomplishments before they announce anything new.

Started skipping that part last year. Then the last keynote was the final nail of disenchantment, so I'm no longer susceptible to being put under a speel while watching. I still get some nerdy kick out of updates though.
BTW, the last keynote, did someone close to Phil die, or can he just no longer hide how miserable it is without Steve? His overall depressing demeanor was shouting "this is truly the end".
It would be hilarious to see Forstall back and the upset looks on the rest of the teams faces.

MBPs dropped $200 in price.
edit: But they are killing the non-retina models?
