The iPhone: When a web site being down creates more excitement than one being up

  • Tweet this

Down_down_deeper_and_down So, today is D-Day, or i-Day, the day that Apple is due, or at the very least, expected to make a number of significant announcements.

The internet, well, tech blogs, and some of the bigger news sites are full of predictions as to what Steve Jobs will announce in his MacWorld keynote later today, but one thing is for sure, whatever it is, it is currently being splashed onto the Apple store web sites across the world.

All the sites are currently down – with just over an hour to go to the speech starts, and predictably this has added some 'excito-fuel' to the bloggers engines. Will we see a new 3G iPhone launched? Will it come in a range of colours? Will it be bigger? Or smaller? Cheaper? Or more expensive?

Who knows. Not many people, apart from everyone at Apple, and all the code monkeys currently uploading pics, stats and prices to the sites all across the world.

Surely someone out there has a window onto their offices, and a set of binoculars? Go on, climb on a ladder and get the skinny..

The wait is too hard to bear.
