To much surprise, Steve Jobs is present today for the announcement of the iPad 2.

Jobs went out on medical leave on January 17. He has been glimpsed in public a few times since, including at a dinner with US President Barack Obama.

"We've been working on this product for awhile, and I didn't want to miss it," Jobs said to the crowd, who gave him a standing ovation. It's good to see you, Steve!

A "surprise" appearance to the bloggers who'd reported scuttlebutt foretelling the event. Okay.

Oh, come on now, was anyone truly surprised? The only question was, would it be live or FaceTime?

Good to see he's in decent shape through his medical leave, though. Good luck, Steve!
