iPhone 6 is a disappointment. Not much innovation at all. Just another iPhone.... Another smart-enough phone. And the iPhone6 ... Oh my, just a stupid idea. Another Note-wannabe. Renember, Apple made fun of big screen phones???? Hmmmm. Ugly design, no sapphire glass, no pixel improvement on camera, no OIS, etc.... Crappy!

uhm.... what is the point of a liveblog if the keynote is being broadcast live? to translate Apple English to normal English?

Apple English is English, no assuming kid, update what is mentioned in it.

Well, the point is that not everyone can watch the keynote video.... i for one am working in an office, and cant watch videos, so having a text based review of things is nice.
