And if it isn't a talk about the iPhone 5, led by <a href="http://mashable.com/2011/08/24/tim-cook-apple-ceo/">new CEO Tim Cook</a>, we'll be very surprised: Apple's crack team of PR commandos are extremely good at steering expectations away from things that just aren't going to happen. 

So what's left to wonder about? The <a href="http://mashable.com/2011/09/03/new-iphone-5-clue/">exact specifications</a>, of course, and the question of <a href="http://mashable.com/2011/09/21/iphone-5-sale-date/">when you'll be able to get your hands on one</a>. But what about the "one more thing?" This staple of Steve Jobs's keynotes and product launches is practically an Apple trademark. It's also a classic showstopper move: get your audience excited about the main thing you're unveiling, then overwhelm and delight them with a whole other product out of left field. 

The rumor mill being what it is, however, it's unlikely that any "one more thing" isn't something we've heard whispers of already. There's a strong chance the event will close with the <a href="http://mashable.com/2011/09/26/facebook-ipad-app-iphone-app-exclusive/">Facebook iPad app</a> we told you about Monday -- what better showstopper than Cook and Zuckerberg together on stage? Well, perhaps Apple is preparing the higher-resolution iPad we've been hearing about for the closing slot. Or maybe there's an even bigger surprise waiting in the wings, such as a giant flatscreen Apple TV. 

What announcement will get the fabled "one more thing" slot? Take our poll, and let us know what you think in the comments.
