Apple Store Status

I added a widget from pingdom to the page that will show the status of the Apple Store. This is in big anticipation of what will be announced on Tuesday. In the past, the store goes down for a bit, then comes back up with the new products. From the pingdom site, some recent downtimes....

ust in case you are wondering how often Apple actually does something like this, here are the most recent US Apple Store downtimes:
