The Engadget Show tapes tomorrow, with Nicholas Negroponte and PlayStation Move!
Josh will be sitting down with Nicholas Negroponte of the MIT Media Lab and the OLPC project to discuss the upcoming XO PC and pontificate about the future of technology.
Sony will also be on hand to demo PlayStation Move motion controller and the company's senior researcher Dr. Richard Marks will be there to give us the behind-the-scenes story. We'll have live demos of stuff never-before-seen on Move, including some hands-on audience demos! Much to our excitement, the usual crew will be joined by Joystiq's very own Christ Grant for the roundtable. You'll also be meeting our new investigative correspondent Rick Karr and we'll have plenty of amazing giveaways at the show. Also expect an out-of-this-world performance from minusbaby complete with stunning visuals from notendo, as well as some other big surprises...
As you may have heard, livestreaming is back by popular demand and so is live Twitter commenting! You will now be able to tweet your comments directly to the livestream! During the show, just include the hashtag "#engadgetshow" and look for your tweet to show up on the ticker at the bottom of the stream. One thing to note, The Engadget Show is a family program, so any single instance of swearing or trolling will force us to turn off the ticker... and it won't come back on. So, keep it clean and have fun!
The Engadget Show is sponsored by Sprint, and will take place at the Times Center, part of The New York Times Building in the heart of New York City at 41st St. between 7th and 8th Avenues (see map after the break). Tickets are -- as always -- free to anyone who would like to attend, but seating is limited, and tickets will be first come, first served... so get there early! Here's all the info you need:

AWESOME!!!
I hope one day I can go to a show to check it out in person.
You guys should get Kevin The Butler on there.
How long does the live ticker usually last? I'm just gonna assume that somebody did something stupid on it :P
is their going to be a Live Feed again for those of us who can't make it.
So when are you going to have a West Coast Live Engadget show?
Does this mean no live podcast today? :-(
@shalafi34 I was wondering the same thing. Was looking forward to it today.
Did Chris Grant from Joystiq change his name to Christ? That would be rad!
What is up with all the PS Move coverage? I know quite a few people with PS3's and none of them give a crap about this at all, and most of them are my old Socom buddies so the Socom 4 thing isn't helping.
I guess my point is nobody really gives a crap, even us PS3 owners.
Thanks Sprint for the guaranteed seat!
"the usual crew will be joined by Joystiq's very own Christ Grant for the roundtable."
JOYSTIQ IS THE SECOND COMING OF THE LORD!
...Or I'm just making fun of a typo... your choice.
@MowDownJoe No, you were right ... but let's keep it our secret, k? ;-)
I'll be there. I assume I won't be hassled about bringing a DSLR into the audience right? Obviously I won't shoot during the taping...
