The Yerba Buena Center for the Arts was buzzing Tuesday afternoon with black-shirted Apple staffers hauling in electronics, heavy-set security  guys guarding the perimeter, TV satellite trucks jockeying for position and workers on a crane plastering the entrance way with the event's signature paint-spattered logo.

The economy may be sputtering, Bin Laden may be threatening, Barack Obama may be speaking to Congress, but in the world of tech all anybody seems to care about is that Steve Jobs is coming to town and he's packing a new gadget.

What can we expect on Wednesday, when Apple's (AAPL) co-founder and CEO takes the stage?

Nobody outside of Cupertino knows for sure, but that hasn't stopped anybody from making educated guesses. Assuming Jobs plans to save the best for last, here's what we think may be coming:

    * iLife 2010. Apple usually updates its suite of applications for organizing, editing, and publishing photos, movies and music in January, so it would not be surprising, or particularly newsworthy, if they did it again this year.
    * iPhone 4. Apple has released a new iPhone every summer since 2007. With Google's (GOOG) and Palm (PALM) racing to catch up, you can bet Apple has some surprises up its sleeve. The surprise most people want to hear is that Apple has terminated its exclusive deal with AT&T (T) and will now be making iPhones for Verizon (VZ), T-Mobile (DT) and Sprint (S). It's a long shot, but it could happen Wednesday.
    * New MacBooks. It's been 232 days since Apple updated the MacBook Pro
