Let's mow through this, shall we?
I think the biggest question is the 2 different scenarios. Did something split? Is one what really happened and the other a dream? Well, I have no idea. Here are just a few things that struck me as important:
Juliet
When she's dying in Sawyer's arms, she incoherently says " We could get coffee sometime. We could go dutch." Remember when almost dead Charlotte mumbles "mommy says I can't have chocolate before dinner"? Seemingly cracked rambling turned out to be real words that young Charlotte spoke to time traveling Faraday. I think Juliet was somehow relaying a glimpse of the alternate timeline (where 815 didn't crash). At that moment she was speaking her part in a real conversation with Sawyer, where presumably they were making a coffee date. I think this is how she knew that it had worked (as she told Miles). She somehow saw the outcome they were aiming for.
Sayid
So, we're told twice that it's imperative that Sayid not die. Jacob tells Hurley he MUST take Sayid to the Temple to be saved, and he also wrote something along those lines on the note inside the ankh. I think that it wasn't Sayid that Jacob wanted to save, it was Sayid's body. I believe that when Sayid was taken into the healing pool, that pool did heal him, however, they were instructed to essentially drown him once his body was healed. This way Jacob would be able to inhabit his body much in the way that 'the man in black' inhabited Locke's. I think the other notable thing is that this must also be the way that young Ben was healed, which just makes us want to know even more if the healing pool changes you in some other way.
Jack and Locke
I was also interested in the story line between Jack and Locke in the reality where 815 didn't crash. When Jack gave Locke hope that his condition could be fixed— that he could be healed, I wondered if this meant that important things would be the same, no matter how other events changed. Would Jack heal lock in this reality? Is that why Locke was healed on the island, because he would be healed no matter how other events happened? I also noted that Jack's exact words to Locke were "Nothing is irreversible", VERY interesting considering that was Jack's exact attitude towards setting off the bomb and reversing everything that had happened.
I'm tired! Good night!

I think it's a parallel universe thing. It doesn't matter how everything STARTS but rather it's all about how everything ENDS. Either way the ending will be the same. Somehow something will bring all of them all to the Island. So the way they get there can change, but the end result is always the same.
Jacob inhabiting Sayid's body is def what I think. It's the only thing that would make sense.
I just find it odd that Desmond was on the plane. Why? How? What the heck is going on?
First off, Jonna. You are a genius and I'm totally tracking with you on all these ideas.
I'm with Dirk that it's all going to end the same as it started, but in a different way. I think the biggest test will be when we see if the Clarie in the Cab is prego. If she is, then I go for the parallel universe bit rather then some sort of split-time bit.
What else we need not forget is that we don't know WHEN the Ajira Airways flight crashed. I believe that now the Losties and the Lockies are in the same place in time, WHEN that is... is the question. I vote the future.
Shannon was not on the plane either... Boone alluded to the fact that he went to save her but she didnt want to be saved... Michael and Walt were MIA also... on Jimmy Kimmel they said that was a significant piece of info! Didnt they also say that Locke was the black smoke and not the man in black?
