Apple Online Store Going Down for 'Maintenance' Tomorrow Morning Ahead of Rumored Product Updates

Without an event scheduled, expect nothing more than processor bumps if an update happens. It certainly won't be new hardware.
When in recent history has Apple released totally new hardware without an event? Never. You're not going to see such things tomorrow.
I agree with the 128 GB SE receiving an update. (Perhaps silent).
Spec bump for the retina MacBook, spec update to the iPad Pro with true tone, iPhone 7 in red and new Watch bands.
You do see, that the upadte only concerns the Apple Store, right?
They wouldn't set such a long down time for the Store, if there wasn't something in the pipeline.
Yes. Yes, I do. It doesn't take hours to update a product page
Again, you will be broken hearted if you expect anything exciting in the Apple Store tomorrow. Heck, if it is a press release update it's guaranteed not to be exciting.My suggestion: if you are looking for a cool, exciting delivery this week: www.Aprilthegiraffe.com
Which is why I believe the invites could send this week. I never concluded they would release tomorrow, let alone this could be basic site maintenance or updating smaller features. I simply put I was curious about a new 10.5 iPad.
And I'm well versed on Apple's product release history.
Agreed. Hopefully silent updates for iMac/Mac Mini/Mac Pro, along with larger base RAM and Fusion Drive as standard (or even better, pure Flash). But that's pretty much the best we can hope for.
Still think the red iPhone could be a thing
and would imagine some new Apple Watch bands
But gonna say the 10.5 isn't happening, that's like the next chapter for the iPad and it's not getting an event? No way
My money is on:
1. iMac (spec-bumped)
2. iPad 9.7" Pro (spec-bumped or lowered in price)
3. MacBook 12" (spec-bumped)
4. iPhone SE and 7 Red
1. iMac (spec-bumped)
2. iPad 9.7" Pro (spec-bumped or lowered in price)
3. MacBook 12" (spec-bumped)
4. iPhone SE and 7 Red
"can't innovate my a..." ohh forget it
At the moment, it's scheduled for tomorrow not today.
My money is on...... wait for it.......... new colours for the AW watch bands.
I would actually be quite happy if they simply upgraded all iMacs to SSD and adjusted prices (so 256 GB SSD would replace the spinner).
Yes. Yes, I do. It doesn't take hours to update a product page

April has already let me down so much this month, don't take the iPad away from me too!
I think they're going to make the Apple Store bezel-free.
That may well be the truth. AAPL doesn't care about desktop computing as the money is no longer there. It's all in iToys.
