Not that it matters, but I think that Tim Cook will announce it with the other hosts taking over for the individual feature presentations.
I think that Cook is a terrible presenter, and I don't like his accent/tone. I'm expecting Phil to do the honors, he did it in absence of Steve before, but I'm hoping for Scott or Johnny.
Tim will do the typical introduction (talking about sales figures, halo effect for macs, etc). Then announce the iPad 3, and mention how there are something like 10 different things they want to talk about. He'll then hand it off to other executives for that part. Finally, Tim will be back on stage to wrap everything up and talk pricing.
Is that based off of the 4s introduction? If so, again cut the guy some slack on that one.
And every time he introduce finical information in other Keynotes. The CEO doesn't have to be the public face onstage. They should find someone more capable.
The best presenters are Scott and Phil. They should use them more often. The french software guy was pretty good too(I know he's left the company to peruse other interests).
If Scott Forstall didn't work only on software he would be my choice as he has the most jobs like skills. My guess is Tim Cook and then hand off to the rest of them for individual presentation.
Haha, me too. I really like Jony Ive even though I've never met him before. But in reality I think it'll be Tim Cook who presents.
Yepp... Same same my friend... but I wont give up hope, so sending good karma by voting on him!
Phil did it for iPhone 4S most recently plus a couple other times when Jobs was gone.
I think Cook will just do like the first 15-20 min welcome, glad to have you here, today is a very special day, but before here are some updates, Apple continues to sell tons of stuff, lots of people like our products (video of iPad 2), itunes, app store (25 billion apps downloaded), ibooks sales, recap on textbooks
then hand it over to Phil who would announce it and Scott would show iOS 5.1 and stuff.

haha that would be too damn cool. But in all seriousness I think it would be cool if they had a video of him from before he died introducing the iPad 3! That would really create an applause.
It would be super illogical for Tim Cook to NOT be the initial presenter as it is an excellent time to show the world the new face of Apple and the fact that he is captain of that ship now. It shows solidarity and lets the public know very clearly that they are still large and in charge.
That being said I assume that he knows his strengths and weaknesses and after he has showed presence, he will likely hand off to the subject matter experts.
Just my 2 cents.
