They probably also close it so when they bring it back up there are no
old cached pages without the new product. People would go insane if
they went to the store and could not see the new iPad and their friend
could.

Good point. Probably Apple does that on purpose to generate hype...

As usual, when the Apple Store goes down, people on Twitter starts
blaming WO because of store being down for minutes or sometimes
hours. So I was thinking of adding a fact in the Facts section of
wocommunity.org about this. Suggestion :
-------------------------------
Q. Why does the Apple Store goes down every time they release a
major product?
A. Since we don't work for Apple, we can't answer this question in
details, but we don't see a reason why they have to put the store
down even if they only added a new product. Funny thing is that the
iTunes Store is also running WebObjects and does it goes down
everything a new song is released? Nope. So our guess is that when
a new major Apple product is released, maybe they close the store
to do some maintenance or for marketing reasons. What we DO know is
that it's not a limitation of WebObjects, and at WOWODC West 2009
some engineers from the Apple Store team were there and they are
very bright people, so we guess that they close the store for very
valid reasons.
-------------------------------
Adding a fact like this might help for people who search about this
on Google or to sent as replies to some tweets :-)
