As expected, it has happened. The Apple online store has gone down. Not that you were going to buy anything right before Macworld anyway. 

Now that Apple has officially started the Macworld event (at least according to me), it’s time to get excited! Although, it seems that someone at Apple has also got excited and hit the button on iWork 09 on Apple.com/Downloads. Of course the iWork page is still the old one, but this confirms at least one of the rumours. 

Update: It seems that some keen soul at Apple is keeping an eye on the happenings, as the text has now been changed back to iWork ’08.

Of course, our live chat will begin soon (just half an hour to go) so hang in there. Be sure to keep your iTunes account ready (US Store) for you don’t want to miss out on some of the gifts. Here’s an official way to create one without a credit card. See you soon!
