It's Tuesday: Apple store closed! (UPDATE)

UPDATE: It appears that this was a maintenance downtime. We're still expecting iMac and Mac mini updates within the next four weeks though, so stay tuned, especially on Tuesdays!

Apple has closed its U.S. online store and guess what? It's Tuesday, the day Apple usually releases new products.

The usual "We'll be back soon" yellow post-it appears with the message: "We're busy updating the store for you and be back shortly".

If MacScoop's report posted last Friday is to be believed, the most likely to be released at the re-opening of the store is new lineups of iMacs and Mac minis, as we've been told they were coming within the next four weeks. See our story for more details.
