Does anyone know whether the landing will be covered for general public consumption ... as in live?

I guess they (jpl) don't want the public seeing live images. You never know, who might should up ?

Probably little live coverage considering only three of the last thirteen probes landed successfully. Bad PR potential.
Here's another page from the above-mentioned site with photographs of the crater. You have to love the optimistic diagram of Spirit's intended territory.
