Steve Jobs to make a rare company-wide speech tomorrow

[lu0s3r322]

No one really knows where Steve's going to appear on iDay, but we've confirmed with multiple sources at Apple that tomorrow morning at 11:00AM he'll be giving an all-hands "Town Hall" iPhone mini-Stevenote for employees only -- so obviously we're not invited. Some of our peeps remember the iPod Town Hall meeting (at which Steve offered up $200 iPods -- nothing to snub your nose at its 2001 introduction) -- so if it wasn't already totally completely driven home by this point, his Steveness seriously considers this week's big launch to be a turning point for Apple, and possibly the gadget industry in general. And whether or not the iPhone's even at all successful, we'd tend to agree. Memo published after the break.

I think it'd be kind of awkward for him to step down tomorrow...for him to be like "well, you've got my baby, now I'm out".

i can't think of anything that he could announce only to the apple campus people. in the last town hall one he announced the ipod so unless he announces another breakthrough product, i dont know what he could announce

iphone upgrades wouldn't be announced because he would do that publicly.

Not a chance that he'll step down tomorrow. I'm sure Apple is hoping the iPhone launch will drive AAPL to new heights, and if Jobs stepped down the stock price would plummet.

I forsee a speech about the history of Apple. Starting with its breakthrough computer to the revolutionary iPod to the groundbreaking iPhone.

Tearjerker.

And then Jobs gives a free iPhone to all of the employees who are there.
