Will not be getting iPhone 5 because I'm still under contract. I will probably watch a feed somewhere, not twitter because it's blocked at work.

It's rumored to be longer then the old one, which means it won't fit into my current "going to the bar" purse. I will have to get a new purse if I were to buy it.

You'll be hard pressed to actually find a live stream of the keynote. You'll get live blogs everywhere, but unless you're there or work for Apple, you likely won't be able to watch it until it's posted publicly on Apple's site a couple hours after the preso.

I think they did some of them. Probably with MacWorld. Apple pulled out of MacWorld a few years ago. Now they only do WWDC and their own events, which all those events (including WWDC) are Developer (for WWDC) and then media-invite-only, events. Nothing is broadcast except to company satellite campuses.

Not that I'm aware of. Just the usual rumors/leaks/whatever from China.

I might upgrade if AT&T allows early upgrades. Do they normally allow early upgrades (or whatever it is called?)

IIRC they have in the past. I think they did with the 4. It's possible they will again with a new generation of device. Dontknow
