Jobs was seen at the Cupertino, Calif., headquarters by a Reuters reporter and by employees, who confirmed seeing Jobs to CNBC.
Of course, there is no way to know whether Jobs started working again or merely stopped by the campus before his scheduled return next week.
Over the weekend, speculation on Jobs' health escalated as a Wall Street Journal report surfaced of a liver transplant in Tennessee two months ago. Apple continued its normal terse response on his health, telling the Journal that Jobs "continues to look forward to returning at the end of June, and there's nothing further to say."
Apple announced in January that Jobs would take a leave of absence to recuperate from a hormone imbalance - the reason given for his obvious weight loss and gaunt appearance.
In 2004, Jobs underwent surgery for a rare form of pancreatic cancer, which some speculated had returned when Jobs took his leave from the company.
Coinciding with the Jobs sightings: his first statement since taking the leave of absence. It came early Monday in a press release noting that more than 1 million iPhone 3G S models were sold in their first three days.

- As 1 among many who have battle Carcinoid tumors and Syndrome who went form 1988 to 2003 misdiagnosed because most in medical profession know little about his form of cancer.
I have no money....injections every four weeks at 14,000.00 and often getting sick has cost me two jobs.
Mr. Steve Job your life has been spared and you have a forum and money to make a difference. Other well known people like Dave Thomas of Wendy's called his liver cancer, never going public to save lives and educate medical and civilians because so little is known, so many are suffering.
You got a liver when I know of many who have waited years. If you appreciate this second chance of life, then use your resources to let the world know it exists and problems so many have.
Even I with little means have dedicated my life to spread these facts. I along with Carcinoid patients all over the world are waiting to see what you do for us all and the many walking around without a clue they are dying a slow death.
Steve Job of Apple.....what will you do.....I am going to send such emails all over the web.
