Whats February?

Still a rumor. I need to find a slide with the "PS3 Timeline". Kaz Harai has been commenting about it in random articles since last December. Its supposed to be a more laid back conference for the "Playstation Fans".

If we don't hear anything official by Feb 1, I'd assume there won't be a February event.

I think they metioned before they were going to be running a realtime OS on the system, probably a stripped down version of linux to handle the interface and media features
am I the only one thinking this is the rumored Feb. conference, I doubt they will have 2 back to back, unless one is public and one is just for developers, either way I'm happy we may finally get some real news

Unless something is different this year (and I can't see anything on the site to indicate this), Devstation is a closed event, developers only - no press, no games, just technical talks.
In fact yes, the registration page clearly states this.
So as much as us developers might get some information out of this event, I wouldn't expect to see anything posted about it.
I guess the most you can do is look at the speakers and talks and try to infer stuff from that

Everyone shoud give their predictions on the PS3 online plan.
I predict free online gaming, using a peer to peer service with a basic friends list across all games, voice chat and a common backend for the networking code.
Just the core services users need, but for free, it will be a good competitor to XBLive.
I would like to guess that Sony will have a marketplace area with downloadable content, music, videos etc, but...I just don't see it getting implemented when the dust settles.

The CES announcements regarding their CONNECT service covers that area. They're expanding it from just music to PSP integration with downloadable game content, movies, and TV Shows. That logically should lend itself very nicely to the PS3 when it arrives.

Yeah, It will be interesting to see predictions everyone has, and then the outcomes.

I think in the future, maybe not at launch, they will incorporate a video conferencing/chat system into the OS with the eyetoy. Maybe this guy James will speak on the eyetoy or other accessories?
Feb PS event, Feb EA (PS3/MoH:A) conference, March DevStation...seems pretty packed for news.
They had PS Festival 2000 on Feb 18, 2000 - a Japanese event, first time with playable PS2 games (open to the public (they sold tickets)). It was confirmed by Sony in early January 2000 so we should know soon if thats whats coming.
Its definitely going to be a press event of some sort and there will be information released. Hopefully its a public event too but eh, maybe not.

Is it possible that RSX also handles some audio job?
