As for whether he should or shouldn't show up - he knows his body best. We don't.
If he shows up, that could be kind of emotional for me, knowing his problems.

Cool, but would probably be between Schiller and Steve. Id think Schiller would be presenting tomorrow.
Anyone know if this will be broadcasted live online tomorrow?
Steve's personal association with All Things Digital co-presenter Walt Mossberg, maybe we could be forgiven for reading some truth in Kara Swisher's report, and the possibility that Steve himself has, just this once, uncharacteristically sanctioned the leak. In a way I hope that's the case.
Kara Swisher's comments about product focus aside, if Steve does turn up tomorrow, possibly to take one last bow, but most definitely hopefully to show us all he's still very much in the game, it will surely be a very emotional event for all, the most emotional in Apple's history so far.
As well as being somewhat grotesque in its intrusiveness, this intensive interest and coverage of Steve's health is in reality so much more. In pure business terms, the true picture has great significance, not just for the future of Apple, but for the future of technology as a whole. Why not an Apple car, Apple medical solutions some day?, Apple... something else we don't yet know we need?!
But for those of us who actually care for the man, as a human being, as well as the business genius he undoubtedly is, and we are surely many, this is very difficult time indeed.

A FaceTime with Jonathan Ive, from England, might be more appropriate
Oh dear. I'll see your "FaceTime with Jonathan Ive, from England" and raise you Virtual Steve Jobs using that avatar technology Microsoft are showing off this week!
Well said, but a Facetime call solves both problems and keeps him officially on medical leave.

Facetime with the new iPad, correct?

What if he is considering making an appearance because it could possibly be his last and what better way to leave the spotlight than introducing one of the most highly anticipated devices to date?

I bet my bottom dollar that Steve will appear via Facetime (as said by many previous posts...) That way whenever a news article or such talks about Steve's appearance, they'll mention the Facetime equipped iPads as well. Great way for Steve to appear without detracting from the product....
Maybe his appearance will be a facetime call. Cook runs the show, ends it with facetime call.....then Steve pops up on the screen, reclining on his sofa, for the first iPad facetime call in public.
i'd agree with that possibility...
