Default Who will intro the iPhone 5?

OK so Steve Jobs has stepped down as CEO of Apple and Tim Cook is now CEO. So I wonder which one of them is going to intro the iPhone 5 on stage? It could be Steve Jobs to show everyone that he's not gone just around or it could be Tim Cook as a show that although he is now CEO Apple is still the same. So who do you think it will be?

I say Steve Jobs but really I'm still 50/50 on it. He's been taking a back seat at keynotes and since Tim Cook is the CEO who knows. I still feel like they will want to capitalize on the Steve Jobs phenominon to bolster sales and create buzz.

Probably Jobs. Remember, he only stepped down as CEO. He retains his position as Chairman of the Board. I could see Cook doing it, but I would lean toward Jobs for the same reasons stated above.

Since he has resigned I believe that it should be fitting for Steve Jobs to do it one last time IMO.

Scott Forestall (probably spelled wrong) the head of iOS.

But I would not be Shocked if Steve came out and did it. Nor if he did, by not doing the keynote it would really signal the change of the guard that he is no longer going to be there for every thing and only major decisions. At this point everything is already decided so showing it off isn't something that would require his presence.

I voted Steve, but he's a pretty class act, so I won't be surprised if he steps back and fully lets Tim take the reigns to show solidarity with the new CEO. Of course he could also take the stage first then do the official changing of the guard.
