Alright folks, start your wild speculating. It's a Tuesday morning and it appears that the Apple Store is down. Could this finally be the MacBook Pro update everyone is expecting?
Thanks to everybody who sent this in!

The store's back up, and it's a new touch screen tablet Mac. Holy crap!
Also, iPhones and iPod touches received a slight bump to 16GB/32GB.

A new MBPro would be just about awesome as my G4 PB is quickly giving up the ghost. Tangent: On the one hand I'm glad Apple takes their store down as it sends everyone's antennae up. On the other hand it makes them look very "rural" in the scheme of things. Is it WebObjects that forces that stop/restart business?

I'm sure they could prevent it if they wanted to. I think it's marketing. Like 49% of Apple in general.

Engadget has a post with a rumor of a 16GB iPhone. Though my 8GB more than enough, seeing a 16GB in the stores wouldn't be bad.

The irish store is still up which leads me to beleive its iPhone related since we dont have it yet :( This probably means that the us uk france and Germany are probably getting a 16GB iPhone(possibly 3G but more than likely not)

Guy's its a 16gb iPhone
They are definitely selling it in the UK. Bought a new phone saturday, and been having edge problems, took it back to 02 today, and enquired about the new iphone. She said that she couldn't officially tell me anything, but at 130 today, I can take mine back and "exchange it for a better one"... with a lot of winking at me-she was ugly.
