And would have been waaaay too obvious for Apple to actually do that.

I personally think there are no hidden messages in that invitation. I just think they wanted to show a picture of some iPhone apps and give it a catchy message like "Let's talk iPhone."

You know what would be awesome? Unrealistic but awesome... If Tim Cook introduces and demos the iPhone 4S and as the conference appears to be wrapping up the phone icon shows up behind him with the "1" on it. That's when the audience learns that we have "one new message."

A video message from Steve Jobs would then play apologizing for not being able to appear in person, but saying he wanted to be the one to officially unveil the iPhone 5. Tim Cook would then demo the new phone.
 
People keep saying it's a nod to the new notification system. But this event is all about a new iPhone, not iOS5.

This has to be the First decent idea I have heard this thread!
 
Somewhere out there, Apple's graphic designers are all laughing together because they randomly put a 1 icon on the invite to mess with you guys

The 1 on phone icon, indicate 1 missed call ...

Maybe, indicates that a person will miss the event ...

in honor of Steve Jobs?
 
isn't it obvious enough? there are 4 icons, and the date is 4th. there are two "4" here, which means 4s. "1" on a "phone" icon means one phone only. 4S will be the only phone being released.

Hey Lieutenant Columbo ;), where do you see an S between two 4?

Maybe you mean that the iPhone will be presented is new "iPhone44" :)
