Those of you who took the time away from your busy lives to follow along with our WWDC 2010 live blog today, you'll no doubt remember a rough patch during Steve Jobs' keynote presentation where his WiFi connection just wasn't cutting it.
As he attempted to show off one of the gazillion new features of iPhone 4 over the handset's previous iteration, in this case how NYTimes.com looked on each phone, he was tripped up by a wifi download speeds that first sputtered and then stopped. After attempting to get the ball rolling again, Jobs joked with the WWDC crowd, asking them to help him out by getting off of the building's wireless. With his typical presentation aplomb, Jobs opted to leave the issue in the dust, and did so by moving on to showcase further uptates to the new handset, and Apple's latest mobile platform operating system iOS.
While the full video of Mr. Jobs' keynote will be available on Apple's website soon, it's worth taking a few moments to stop by Valleywag to catch a rare glimpse of a master presenter off his stride, even if it is just for a moment.
