Their conference is at 9AM Eastern (6AM Pacific)

I don't think they've said preciesely when it will be available but I'm thinking I'm remembering someone said "in the morning"

[FaiKee]

LOL, it's right before your eyes all along, catch is: it is linked to the WDP page atm.

That link has been known. 24.5ish hours now. I guess I should get some of the stuff on my Samsung Series 7 Slate off before putting Win8 on it. I'll do the desktop afterwards.

try scrolling the Start Menu a bit to the left, and then put the courser like right near the bottom left edge of the Desktop tile. It looks almost exactly as it is in the pic, at least on my laptop.

Why did neowin change the title of the W8CP article from "tomorrow" to "later today"

[Subhadip]

Why did neowin change the title of the W8CP article from "tomorrow" to "later today"

Because it is now 29th Feb in the editor's time zone?

[Mohitster]

Because it is now 29th Feb in the editor's time zone?

[bogas04]

there won't be livecast ,but will there be a live text stream?

[Ci7]

you get 8Mbit via 3G :o

we dont even have 3G here :(

i have a 2mb cable.

yes we have 2.5G here. And its really slow. Its something like 2gb for 30days for $2...But no 3g.

although there is one sweet thing. My 2mb internet connection is just $17 a month and its unlimited. like really unlimited. no limit. :p no throttling or anything :p so im ISOing all the time :p

oh yea out of the theoretical 21.1Mb that what i actually get (between 8 to 10 mb)

capped at 60GB (god i hate caps!!! :s )

cost around 90$/mo :(

can't imagine what would LTE do for us two month later .... *drool*

[Mohitster]

Countdown started....only 6 hours remaining! :D

[George P Global Moderator]

There should be a live blog at least but I haven't seen a link to one yet.

[Steven P. Administrators]

5 hours :D Microsoft is making it available at the start of their working day, I doubt they want to do a live blog at 4am where they are?

Not MS, the tech bloggers who will be at the event should do it.
