third icon: the location (picture of 1 infinite loop, CA on the map)
fourth icon: iPhone missed call (missed the June announcement, pushed back to October)
The 1 on the phone icon is.. it'll be only on ONE carrier... Apple Wireless Network... After Apple puts Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and all the other smaller telecoms out of business with their awesome service... then when the other telecoms can no longer survive... they will be on sale and Apple will take over them all, combine all their spectrum, and create the Apple Super Wireless Network. Now everyone gets free mobile to mobile, no roaming charges, and would only have to pay for landline.

Have all the previous iPhones been unveiled at WWDC? This would mark the first time that the iPhone had its (technically) own event and therefore it's own coded invite messages. Or did the invites for WWDC 2010 make major references to the '4'?
As an aside, if you're ever bored, look back a year ago at all the rumors, mockups, etc. of what the '4' was "going" to be. It'll give you some good laughs.

First one was MacWorld.

Bunch of teardrops until we saw the actual thing on Gizmodo, if I remember correctly.
As we all know, a period is how one ends a sentence. I just used one at the end of that last sentence. And that one. Also that one...
For the Apple invite, it signifies the end of Apple. You heard it here first! Apple is being bought by RIMM, makers of the BlackBerry, so they can start releasing their AppleBerry combination phone: the FruitFone!
4g phones don't exist yet. The lte phones that do exist however drain battery life in record time.
I think there is a high probability of HSPA+ '4G', not so sure about LTE '4G', and definitely not the ITU-T defined LTE Advanced '4G' you seem to be referencing.
I am for one am excited to see the announcement and see what comes out of it. At&t doesn't seem to be allowing people to upgrade early, so I cant until Nov. And unless an iphone 5 is released with a thinner wider screen with curved back, then I will probably wait for the next generation and be happy with ios5 and my iphone 4.

So this appeals to you more than actual new features? Your current phone too fat, skinny, and square for your tastes?
After all these years with Verizon I can finally drop our two Treo BRICKS. Since being grandfathered into a data plan a month or so ago there's now no reason for me to continuing holding back and join the crowd. I hope the rumors are true as we'll be purchasing two right off the bat. Yay for me!! Yay for my wife!!

actually the glass on the back for me is very slippery that is why I use a case, but I would prefer not to. A metal back I'm sure would be easier to hold as well as the shape, and I personally wouldn't mind a slightly larger screen. But also new features are an obvious inclusion in the product, I do not feel my phone slow though by any means, the main feature I would find most useful would be an improved camera.

Scotty: Computer! Computer?
[He's handed a mouse, and he speaks into it]
Scotty: Hello, computer.
Dr. Nichols: Just use the keyboard.
Scotty: Keyboard. How quaint.
If it was made out of transparent aluminum, that would be COOL.
Also, my take on the teaser image is...
first icon: day and date of event
second icon: local time (Pacific) of the event
third icon: the location (picture of 1 infinite loop, CA on the map)
fourth icon: iPhone missed call (missed the June announcement, pushed back to October)

Hmm, iPhone 4S or iPhone 5?
Judging from past invitations, Apple loves hidden meanings. I'm seeing a lot of "4" references here.
- The 4th of October as a double entendre.
- 4 icons.
- The sum of all visible digits, divided by the number of icons:
4+10+280+1=295.
2+9+5=16.
16/4=4
Or, If you take the map icon as meaning 1 Infinite Loop:
4+10+1+1=16
16/4=4.
Ok, I'll put my tinfoil hat away!
what about all the other digits on the clock face?
4+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+280+1 = 363. (not sure where to go from there)
or 4+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+1+1 = 84 - clearly a reference to the 1984 Macintosh Commercial
or did you mean only the resulting time indicating by the clock hands: 10:00
now where did I put MY tin foil hat?

Introducing iPhone 4S, now with built in Pez dispenser!
Now that would be something.
With stiff competition from phones like the Galaxy S II, I don't think Apple can afford not to raise the bar again.
In which possible universe could iOS 5 not be considered to "raise the bar"?
</humor>
You left out the explanation for the period.
Ah, I was just about to get to the period.

Genius, Tim Cook. Pure genius.
4G is a dealbreaker for me. I really hope it has 4G but, from what I am reading, it may not have it.
4g phones don't exist yet. The lte phones that do exist however drain battery life in record time.

When & What Time: Tuesday the 4th + 10:00 AM
Where & What: Cupertino Campus + 1 Phone
No iPhone 4S... only one phone. iPhone 5.
Right?

And 1 could be meaning 1 world phone (CDMA & GSM).
Lets "Talk iPhone" could be meaning it has voice recognition feature.
