They are Opening that 100 year old package right now - watch live video • Hacker News Board

At the moment they're interviewing some spectators asking what they think is in the package... and the package itself is in a plastic clear crate on the floor in the middle of a room of people.

Unfortunately I have to jump on a train before it's opened, so I can't tell you what is in it. There's probably another Norwegian or Swedish speaker on here that is also watching and who will be able to explain it all.

Ok, I am at work and can't watch it. Can someone post updates here? Thanks.

It's not due to be open until 4:30pm GMT (5:30pm BST)... another 50 minutes.

Your url is broken. The HN parser eats quotes from URLs, which wikipedia uses a lot. You need to urlencode it:

I can't watch either. I hope it's the iPhone 5.

Now that's MARKETING!
