Apple Store Online Goes Down Prior to iPad mini Pre-Orders

Yes, the Apple Store is down just two a half hours before the 12:01AM PDT pre-order time for the iPad mini, which we confirmed earlier. If you’re looking to pre-order the iPad mini or 4th gen iPad tonight, you can also do so from the Apple Store app.

Don’t forget you can also earn Air Miles or Aeroplan miles for buying from Apple.ca. Midnight is coming!

Update: Aeroplan is not applicable to the iPad mini and 4th gen iPad:

Please note that the following items are not eligible for the accumulation of Aeroplan Miles: The iPad mini and iPad with Retina Display, Gift cards, and giftwrapping.
