Apple Store is down ahead of iPad event

Here we go: Apple Store is down ahead of the company's "Let Loose" event, scheduled for 10am E.T. on Tuesday, May 7.

As is tradition, there's no additional information on the Apple Store page. "Be right back. We’re making updates to the Apple Store. Check back soon," a sign says, accompanied by the event's logo.

The event is about to start very soon - it's a little odd that Apple didn't take the Store down earlier - so if you want to tune in, you can do so on YouTube and Apple's website.
