The Apple Store is down, prepare yourselves
Happy Stevemas boys and girls! As we look forward to the 9-9-09 Apple Event starting later today, which we'll be liveblogging, the Apple Store has quietly gone quiet. Megan noted the early morning price cuts to the iPod line, a bit surprising considering the announcements scheduled for later in the day -- why not wait for the big moment?

iTunes Store & App Store problems
With the App Store celebrating its first birthday, there is a fair amount of news coverage, and with Michael Jackson's memorial service being broadcast, his fans are sure to be hitting iTunes up for some of their favorite songs. So it stands to reason that today is probably not a good day for the iTunes store to be having problems. Don't you just love Murphy's Law?I myself had troubles with searching for music from iTunes earlier today, but things seemed to be working better a short while later, so I figured things were fixed. Since then, however, we have received several other reports of troubles, yet things are working fine for me still. So it seems that this could be chalked up to routing troubles depending on your location, or it may just be intermittent and I've been lucky.
Either way, it's safe to say that there is definitely something going on, although exactly what it is remains a question. Searching seems to be working, albeit a bit slowly, and downloads are working fine for me, but others have reported not being able to download at all. As they say, YMMV (your mileage may vary).
Are you having troubles with either of the stores? Let us know in the comments.

Counting down to WWDC: The store, as they say, is down
As the sands flow through the hourglass, so appears the yellow sticky. If you doubted that we would see some sort of new product today, well, time to get with the program.
C'mon back at 1pm ET for all the latest updates from the keynote.
Apple Store down on a Sunday?
Well, that's unusual. Price drops? New gear? Regular maintenance? We'll know soon enough.
Back up now...

iPhone Dev Center goes offline
"We'll be right back" is the temporary message that graces the front page of the iPhone Dev Center. This isn't a total surprise, since this portal is Apple's one stop shop for all iPhone devolper information which will no doubt be changing in the coming hours.
Our WWDC coverage continues here on TUAW. Be sure to check our WWDC 08 page and send us tips if you notice anything on Apple's site.
Thanks, Drew!
Apple Store down
The Apple Store (at least in the U.S.) is down. A quick check of newsfeeds shows that no one really knows why, as the only predictions are centering around September 12th, next Tuesday's special event. This is most likely a maintenance thing, but we'll let you know more as soon as we do.

UPDATE: Looks like there's nothing new in the store boys and girls; false alarm. Guess you'll just have to keep biting your nails for September 12th.

Apple Store UK down
We're receiving tips that the Apple Store UK is down, with the infamous 'We'll be back' sticky note at center stage. There hasn't been much buzz about new products lately, and given the time of day (or night, in the UK's case), we're willing to bet this won't be anything major. Still, it's worth noting nonetheless.

EST, the online Apple Store (US) is down. The usual sticky note graphic and "...we'll be back within the
hour" text have replaced the index page. We'll keep you posted.Thanks to everyone who sent this in.
