La-la-la. Please have new PowerBooks.....mine just got destroyed and the insurance are paying out as we speak. Would be rather marvelous to get back a better one, especially without the 2 week delay of getting the HD upgraded if the rumours are true.
dont count on it down ere
Yeah, I am hoping for that kind of price drop as well. Don't hold your breath though- -Apple Australia is notorious for their exuberant prices that are not proportional to the US.
Anyone care to speculate on AU prices?

The stores are down earlier than usual, they usual go off line at around 1.30 PM CET. The US store is still up.

Did they telly you updates were coming? As long as the US store is still up, we don't know if something is coming. It possible though that they're changing the European sites and introduce new hardware same time, that could be the reason why the European stores went down so early.

A minor question is, with the possible new products coming to the store, how will the tsunami relief links on the front page be affected, if at all? I'm guessing it either won't, or there will be a little banner added on the bottom. (I know, I'm hedging).
With the US Store not having been down, it does make it seem rather unlikely that these new updates will appear. Unless Apple suddenly decide that the US aren't important anymore....
EDIT: Even the Japan store is up, so it seems Europe is somewhat blessed today

Perhaps they adjust European prices according to the current exchange rates

I saw it as well the other day, I thought it was funny having to almost turn my head to look at the other half of the screen.

Oh, that'd be a nice treat. My £1381 laptop for £1015 based on the exchange rate.
What is going on?
European stores still down, rest of the world still up-what is taking them so long? This is the time when European stores go down when updates are being prepared. The US stores usually follows about half an hour later. So if nothing happens within the next 30-45 minutes, we won't see any updates today.
