Apple’s online store is currently displaying the familiar message that often, but not always, precedes new product additions:
We’ll be back soon. We are busy updating the store for you and will be back within the hour.
Visit Apple’s online store here.
[UPDATE: 11:45pm EDT: The Apple Store is now back online. There are no announcements about new Apple products.]
New prices on Cinema Displays
Cinema display prices changed a few weeks ago.
Something has changed for sure. I just can’t find it.
The convenience store down the street has its “Back in 5 minutes sign” on the door. NEW POWERADE FLAVORS???!!!!
This was just a test.
They were updating the site so that they could “flip the switch” at a later time. Nothing changed for us, but something changed behind the scenes.
Guess we’ll all have to wait and see.
New prices on Cinema Displays
No, those are the updated prices from WWDC
Watcher, that was my thought too. Can’t someone use their source code skills to tell us what happened? Some zealt here must have the apple store source code memorized by now.
store back up, what’s new?
Thank you Dennis – that was funny!
all you people sitting watching the store are morons!
Cant remember where I read it today, but the Apple Mac displays were predicted to have soon have VESA compliant mounting. I dont think they were optional before… were they…? Anyone?

“VESA-compliant Mounting
Enjoy the flexibility to place your display anywhere and adjust it effortlessly. The optional VESA mount lets you choose any VESA-compliant mounting solution: put it in a kiosk, mount it on a wall, swivel it around via an articulating arm and more.”
Does SJ have a sick and twisted sense of humor that with a single virtual post-it saying “we’ll be back” he can cause people world wide to stop and wait and then search their website for changes?
No obvious changes to any products at this time and it’s back up.
The Cinema Displays have always had VESA mounting. Face it people, there is nothing new to see today!!!
Psyche!
Hey it’s too early for April Fools again!
probably just getting ready so they can just flip the switch next week
Probably a dry run, I doubt they have loaded content for next week, it would be too easy for someone to accidently show the new stuff, and steve would then have to execute them.
They’re just watching sites like this go crazy. I can just see the sysadmin sitting back in Cupertino laughing at all of us.
Back to school prank.
Methinks just system upgrades and maintinence for next weeks big announcements.
When was the last time Apple actually introduced something new? Must be years ago now…
just mt tots… only apple can make so many people do silly things like going crazy when their website is offline for short period of time… ha…
