14 DAY TRIAL // Apple fans all over the world will want to watch the main event of the fall. The Cupertino, California-based tech giant is ready to unveil their latest and greatest and finally put a stop to the rumors. The phone that will be better and will sell more than all the Android gadgets is going to show up on Tuesday.
In the past seven years, no other phone manufacturer was able to sell more devices shortly after launch or generate more hype than the iPhone. Apple was the company that got into the phone market later than others but managed to stay on top of everyone else. Their design has been literally the inspiration for all the other hardware manufacturers and software makers.
The good-old Flint Center
Now it's time for the iPhone 6 to come out and together with that comes a rumored iWatch. Apple chose a different venue for Tuesday's event. The traditional locations like Moscone West and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco were left aside. Even the conference room in the Apple's campus was not good enough, for some reason.
This time, they will go to Flint Center for Performing Arts in Cupertino. The location is close to Apple's headquarters and has some sentimental value to Apple fans because that's where the 1984 Mac was announced.
Apple built a special white construction for the event. The construction may be a large set for a rock band like U2 (rumored to show up today) or a way to test a fitness device like the iWatch.
Live on TV, iOS, and the web
Apple has been motivated to promote the live event and even have a special page with a countdown timer. They did not reveal too much about the event and just announced that the page would show "live video from their special event and a whole lot more."
However, the video can only be accessed by Apple users. You can view the live stream on a Mac running at least OS X 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.1.10. If you choose to watch the video on an iPhone, iPad or iPod, you need to make sure you are on iOS 6.0 or later.
The best way to see the live keynote is, however, an Apple TV connected to your living room HDTV. Apple just launched the new Apple Events channel. So far there's only the time and location of the event, a countdown timer and a picture of Tim Cook on the stage.
If you have a few hours to spare, you can also watch previous Apple events like their WWDC Keynotes from the past two years, the launch of OS X Mavericks, iPhone 5s or iPhone 5.
As you may have guessed, Apple left out the Windows users from this live streaming. Unlike previous events, there is no official way to watch this on a PC.
