there was no live streaming, just live blogs, and here is one of them:
http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/02/live-from-apples-ipad-2-event/?sort=newest&refresh=60

 ...guess this will still fit in this thread - it's about the release of iPad2 on March 11, together with iOS 4.3. So iPhone4 and iPod Touch 4G are concerned as well. Main thing to retain about iOS 4.3 on the iPhone is the ability to make it a wi-fi hotspot, allowing satellite devices to connect and share a 3G connection. This had been announced many weeks ago anyway, only difference is this now official. The hotspot functionality might suffer from your ISP's restrictions though ;D

 ps: could also be that the feature was already available with "jailbroken" devices.
