The headings says it all. Presumably because they are updating it for the new iPad: http://store.apple.com/nz

Incredible in this age they still take a website down to add new products...

garvani: and its up again.. still no pricing etc Are you sure... It doesn't appear to be back up for me yet? I first noticed the Store down for updating at 5:00pm, I haven't seen it up again since then. Also, it's worldwide. i.e.. Australian and US Stores are also down for updates.

Yeah sorry, had some weird caching issue happening. It's quite a long downtime! Surely they could have had it ready so the downtime would be minimal

OK, it's back up now. But can't see any changes in the NZ Store? AU & US have the new iPad's listed - unless they were there before?
