I was just looking at the time capsule page on the Apple Online Store and it had a new symbol next to it but I don't remember them updating it. I will attach a screenshot.

Huh, that's strange. There wasn't any announcement of them updating it. Doesn't look like anything's changed spec-wise either. Mistake maybe?

It has the same part #, MC343LL/A, that it's had since the fall 2009 update.

That IS strange. It doesn't appear to be new. Maybe something is in the pipe?

Just noticed the price on Amazon went from $277.99 to $274.99. Wonder if it's slowly creeping down in price because they know a refresh is forthcoming. Hopefully we'll here something soon, as I'm going to be in the market to purchase one of these in about a month.

It's not new. The "New" label refers to a simultaneous dual-band wifi, something the current Time Capsule has been able to do since its release a long time ago. And the "Updated" label refers to speed tests conducted in 2009. I have no idea why those labels are still there.

Ah, so someone at Apple must've let that detail slip past
