Sorry everyone - this made it to "published" accidentally before it was supposed to go live...but it is out there so here's where we are consolidating info...

As anticipated by many, the iMac line got updated with a new, low cost 21.5 inch HD model. Utilizing a new 1920x1080 16:9 aspect ratio screen, the new iMac replaces the previous 20 inch models.  A new 27 inch model replaces the 24 inch model.

Mac Minis got a mild refresh updating processor speeds mildly while getting a new 1TB version media center model.

New MacBook...

Airport Extreme and Time Capsules will get the new 3x3 MIMO radios.

And now you can mount your iMac on the wall?

New Magic mouse as well

US and Canadian store still down for me. ??

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:30am

Huh? store is still down, and no news on apple.com or any of the product pages here.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:30am

You already posted this like it's true, but the store has not been updated yet. You don't know anything.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:55am

As usual, you think the world revolves around America. The Europe sites are already up.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:03am

I AM in europe dude and the NL, DE, ES and FR sites are still down. Which EU site is up? What new stuff is there?

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:06am

Love it!, you said it just right.

Tyrannous (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:35am

Really, way to be a jerk and wrong. they know everything.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:38am

Excuse me: the Apple web site was updated with specs even when the store was still down.

I can hear that guy from the Death Star saying "Standby. Standby."

Sylvester Malus (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:10am

That was on the super Star Destroyer, you dufus ;-)

I'm such a geek.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:44am

how could they have put a 1TB drive into a Mac Mini? There are no 2.5" 1TB drives on the market!!

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:56am

Dual 500GB drives, no optical drive.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:57am

Western Digital has a 2.5" 1TB drive...

I hope this is true but as long as the store is down then I will see this as the worst post on this website ever. However, if it is true, then it will be the best post ever!

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:44am

The store is still down. How do you know any of these updates are true?

He's going off the leaked product information.

Leaked is a word which is in MASSIVE quotation marks, since we don't know the truth.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:47am

Wow, you clearly guys know how a website is done and updated.

Especially content versus homepage...

Anywhoo.

9to5mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:48am

ah so Apple owns 9to5mac? that makes sense :p

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:50am

douchebag.

cjmegatron81 (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:51am

What store are you seeing this in?

Kev Orng (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:51am

This is how death announcements get published prematurely!

Irregular Activity (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:52am

The store is still down, how can you possibly speculate on this until it is back up.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:53am

I hope Apple realizes the havoc these updates inflict on businesses worldwide. I have not done any work since the store went down and I refuse to do any until it is back up and I have bought anything I take a likening to. I can play this game as long as you like Apple!!!!

Shelly (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:15am

Love it!

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 8:54am

16:9 = Crap

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:00am

You & 9to5mac = crap

Tallest Skil (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:01am

100% truth. You want 16:9? Buy a television. You want a computer standard? Buy 16:10. I'm going to buy all of the 24" 16:10 (1920x1200) monitors I can find starting right now, because if APPLE THEMSELVES are going away from 16:10, the death toll has rung.

Oh, I already have three of them, but I guess I'll just get six now.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 20, 2009 - 9:13am

Yup.

http://www.apple.com/hotnews/

Apple have ditched their 24" displays, introduced a new mouse (which sounds awful, but then I've never liked apple mice) and updated white macbook.

as far as "We are hearing no new keyboards or mice from an Apple Store employee." goes.. epic fail.
