Apple Store down; has Snow Leopard arrived?

As most East Coast Americans drink their morning coffee and eat their breakfasts in anticipation of work, Apple is quietly busy updating its Apple Store.

Is Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard on its way? (UPDATE: Looks like I was right! Read more here.)

The signs point to yes. It's a bit too early to begin offering a new iPod, which is likely to be revealed at a planned Sept. 9 event "about music." And a tablet, for all you rumormongers out there, would require its own event.

What do you think?
