AAPL Stock: 502.21 ( + 4.54 )

Apple online store taken down in advance of WWDC

Apple Store goes offline


Apple's online store has been temporarily taken down for updating, a splash page reads. The maintenance comes in advance of today's WWDC keynote by CEO Steve Jobs, scheduled for 10AM Pacific time. Apple is then widely expected to announce a new 3G iPhone, and possibly other new hardware, including a rumored touch tablet that would measure between 4 and 7 inches. The upgraded iPhone is expected to ship later this month.

    So what do you think is the fastest way to get an iP2 today. Apple Store Online? AT&T store?

    Um

    Wouldn't the fastest way be to go to the Apple Store itself. If you go online, you're not getting it today!

    touch tablet that....

    ....measures between 4 and 7 inches? Welcome back Newton! I consider it unlikely, however.

    UK news leak

    Saw this on Twitter today. According to WIl Harris, TWiT panelist and founder of tech site Channel Flip:""iPhone 3G will be free to new customers and £100 upgrade to existing customers. Announced tonight, but not shipping until July 11. Online registration to get the first new handsets... Note: this is UK specific info, US may differ slightly. But UKers... prepare for a nice new handset if you're happy with the contract."

    Wow

    Taking the store down for two hours just to put up the new iPhone? Apple needs to get some better web site developers/uploaders.
