(Yes, this is a photo of me channeling Walt Mossberg in a chat with CEO Steve Jobs in the demo area.) It includes the you-are-there shots of Jobs onstage, as well as scenes from the media throng and more, as the tech giant unveiled updates, additions and renovations of old stuff and also launched new stuff.

A quote from Steve Jobs in an Apple press release this morning and a handful of media reports claiming he has been spotted at Apple HQ over the past few days are raising hopes that the CEO may have officially returned to work.
