I see the LG Ultrafine 5K 27” is back ordered at B&H Photo. This makes me think that the unavailability of the 27” iMacs has been about display shortages.

Apple has the 5k in stock, and it looks like the majority of B&H's LG monitors are backordered.
 
IF there is new hardware to be announced for today which can then be ordered/pre-ordered today - then the Apple online store will go down when WWDC starts...

If it stays up then nothing new or a spec bump here and there...

This is how it's been done in the past?

Yes this has generally been the way how the Store operates during a major event.

OR

they are not bringing the store down because of COVID. Ie. they know people need to order stuff as the stores are closed etc. so this could be the only time they've elected to update the store on the go and not take it down to create a buzz. It kinda makes sense. I'm sure if COVID wasn't here then the store would be down :)

Sounds perfect. Enjoy!

Already by now. Several hours before i believe.
Edit: meaning no hardware is likely. I think... or at least not released shortly after WWDC.

I think we already have precedent of them closing the store down briefly for minor updates in DC (During Covid) era.
 
I think it doesn't count :)

Also, they will have to update it with new iOS, macOS etc. so updates will happen.

Defo hope you’re right... worth noting though that the store front doesn’t get updated for the new version releases, typically just the Apple home page
 
Do we think its live preview of people joining in or just animated version unrelated to connection?

this little spinning earth is fun if nothing else.
