You can almost always find it on the Apple website after the keynote.

Hi Keith, where is this link for VO users to listen to keynote presentations? Even though Steve Jobs isn'tdoing this one at MacWorld, would definitely be interested.

Hi folks,

I don't want to start a long thred here, but, I think this will put an end to the rumors.

I have never been a part of anything which sparks so much interest among its users, MAC world, WWDC and so on.

Using the MAC is great fun and waiting for the new products is interesting as well. It is even more interesting now that Apple has begun to talk about Voiceover, in releace notes and providing a special link for Voiceover users to listen to keynote presentations and the like.
Now about Steve Job's health.


Steve Jobs Missing Macworld Due To Health

<topicnews2.gif>Apple has published a letter today from Apple CEO Steve Jobs that confirms speculation that Steve Jobs is missing Macworld due to health issues: specifically recovering from a hormone imbalance that has been causing unhealthy weight loss.
Dear Apple Community,

For the first time in a decade, I'm getting to spend the holiday season with my family, rather than intensely preparing for a Macworld keynote.

Unfortunately, my decision to have Phil deliver the Macworld keynote set off another flurry of rumors about my health, with some even publishing stories of me on my deathbed.

I've decided to share something very personal with the Apple community so that we can all relax and enjoy the show tomorrow.

As many of you know, I have been losing weight throughout 2008. The reason has been a mystery to me and my doctors. A few weeks ago, I decided that getting to the root cause of this and reversing it needed to become my #1 priority.

Fortunately, after further testing, my doctors think they have found the cause - a hormone imbalance that has been "robbing" me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. Sophisticated blood tests have confirmed this diagnosis.

The remedy for this nutritional problem is relatively simple and straightforward, and I've already begun treatment. But, just like I didn’t lose this much weight and body mass in a week or a month, my doctors expect it will take me until late this Spring to regain it. I will continue as Apple's CEO during my recovery.

I have given more than my all to Apple for the past 11 years now. I will be the first one to step up and tell our Board of Directors if I can no longer continue to fulfill my duties as Apple's CEO. I hope the Apple community will support me in my recovery and know that I will always put what is best for Apple first.

So now I've said more than I wanted to say, and all that I am going to say, about this.

Steve
