Probably just a freckin' software update or a pink iPod Classic... just some reason to take the store down for an hour to spice up the speculations :s

Every Tuesday the US store is down for maintenance , we just went through this last week.

The New MBPS are going to be released on the 3rd Tuesday of this week or in March

The US Store does not go down every Tuesday for maintenance. It only goes down this time on a Tuesday for a product update/release.

German/Dutch store still up as well.. maybe it's an US only thing- some new ad for movie rentals? Or 'get your new Apple TV Firmware!'. What about a nice BBC Worldwide Banner? I don't expect anything big...

Why would their website need to be taken down for maintenance? For a spring clean, a service, check spellings...

Not to my knowledge, it only needs to go down for updates.

To my knowledge even that is not necessary, just a switch over... But that would not get everyone talking like this . This is the way.

Please let it be the MBP this time!!!

Macbook Pro Macbook Pro Macbook Pro Pleeaaase apple!

As ever, the US & Canada store usually go down hours before international stores. US for the main update - Canada because its on the same server. International stores updated afterwards.

At least thats the general idea...
