14 DAY TRIAL // Just before Apple's Town Hall event yesterday, the company's online store was taken down. Apple wouldn't have had reasons to do this unless it was adding new items. And it was. Following the event, Apple's store was back up, listing all the new products announced earlier that day, and then some. Here's the new stuff Apple is offering.
