On September 7th, 2005 Apple helt a "Special" event, revealing both iTunes 5 and the iPod nano.

Originally, the keynote ended with Steve Jobs inviting Kanye West up on the stage to perform two songs from his new album "Late Registration" in an attempt to promote both the album and the new iPod. This performance was apparently very odd, and the attenders didn't do as much as clap, Kanye allegedly also threw in a diss against George Bush in the lyrics.

Only around 3 days later this part of the event was completely removed from Apple's website, with the stream ending abruptly just before West was supposed to walk on stage.

Does anyone have the original version of this event downloaded or archived? There are absolutely no video clips available online, and only a handful of photos are in circulation.
