The Night Before the Keynote

Twas the night before the keynote
and all through the land;
The bloggers were a frenzy
For what was at hand.
They boarded their planes
handling laptops with care.
In hopes that his Steveness
and Tablet would soon be there.

So for the next 24

we'll sacrifice our beds,

As images of iPad OS dance in our heads.

So with @MrHaroHaro prepping coffee

and me with MacBook in lap.

We eagerly await the REAL news,

and hope it ain't a trap.
What with today's McGraw-Hill leak
that sparked quite the chatter.

We all know by tomorrow
it just wouldn't matter...

This is my obligatory pre-Tablet/Unicorn Tears/Mythical unannounced "game changing," "print industry saving," "god-tablet" post. Tomorrow once there is real news to report we'll bring you the condensed version of tomorrow's Apple Keynote.

Thank you to all the men and women that have brought us all kinds of Tablet/Slate/whatever news and rumors. In specific thanks to Gizmodo.com, TUAW.com, and AppleInsider.com for all the great stories - check those out and see how they panned out after tomorrow's event.
