Covered Apple banners point to unknown announcement?

As noted by our editors inside the venue, Apple has several covered banners placed around Moscone West, in anticipation of an announcement or announcements to be made during the company’s keynote address this afternoon. The appearance of the covered banners is notable as Apple has uncharacteristically pre-announced its main talking points for the event, which include Mac OS X Lion, iOS 5, and iCloud, all of which are featured prominently on banners elsewhere in the building.

Covered Apple banners point to unknown announcement?

It is possible that these banners feature a yet-unannounced product or service, or they could instead feature specific information—such as a release date for Mac OS X Lion—that Apple wants to keep under wraps until after the event.
