Apart from Maemo related, maybe they will also announce something big Symbian related - like how Maemo and Symbian will play togther with QT being the glue ... and not like an announcement thing - but something to show.
Also I think they will show off more than one Maemo device with multiple region support (i.e. NAM version with ATT bands as well).
And announce something big on the VoIP front on Maemo - essentially giving freedom to users to call via VoIP on any network.

They're going to announce that the N900 has already reached end of life. Long live the N910! You watch.

Is that even technically sound on a device that lets the user gain root?Sure sound like a type of surprise though ;P

Qt stuff isn't huge enough for Nokia World. Plus, Nokia and the Symbian Foundation have already annonuced tentitive roadmaps for how Symbian and Maemo will be using Qt. By this point next year, most of the integration Nokia will need would be complete there, and its just a matter of the Symbian Foundation finishing up their end of things for (at that time) Symbian^3.
But if they did manage to get Ovi Chat+Contacts to work with VoIP providers with litter configuration on the user site, that would indeed be very huge, and quite the smack in the face to several carriers.
That would make the whole "devices to services" connection something of a major announcement... but would need a halo device to push it out there

I would love more Voip in my phone. I have saved the cost of my E65 ten times over by using Voip over wifi while travelling to call home. In fact I paid for my E65 with my first call home from Russia to Canada. $0 a minute instead of $6 a minute.
Now if I could have a smart phone that would route my calls automatically depending on where I was and if an open wifi was available...now THAT would be useful. Or a voip number that people could call that would find my cell number if I wasn't near a wifi.
