Apple today is holding what is largely expected to be its final event of the year. Rumor has it the company will unveil a couple of new iPads and even might share some OS X / Mac Pro news, as well. Get caught up on what to expect, brush up on the history of Apple invitations, and enjoy our live, up-to-the-second coverage of the event itself (also available to stream via Apple TV).

During Apple's event, you can join Joshua Topolsky and Ross Miller for live video commentary as news breaks. After that? It's The Verge Live — for all things relevant and irreverent — anchored by Josh, Ross, and a handful of guests both in our New York studio and in San Francisco. Keep it locked!
