I was there the weekend the iPhone launched.

1) The store is cool as all get out.

2) At 11 PM on Sunday night after the phone launch, there were probably 700 people in the store. It was pretty amazing. We stood outside for a minute and there was a person coming in or going out of the store about every three seconds.

Track down my friend 'Mike G' some time... I'll bet you he's sharper. :)

He's a software engineer who loves Apple's so much... he works part time at the Apple store.

The past few years, every time I visited the Apple Store at Village Pointe, it was always full of people looking at
and playing with everything Apple. Since Village Pointe Apple Store grand opening in 2007, Apple has introduced
the IPhone, Apple TV, IPod Touch, Apps Store and last Saturday, the IPad tablet computer.

The Apple Store Window Display Reads...

A friend is browsing photo albums in Photes.

1 am reading about the IPad version of the Weather channel IPad app in Apps Store.

Viewing the ibook app book shelf.

That is me holding the IPad with the Home screen displayed.

Everyone is having fun trying out the iPad.

How does continued interest in new products at the Apple Store relate to City Development?

Good to know. I was going to get my wife a new iPhone this week. I'll head over to Verizon instead. Thanks.

Like with most things with Apple, it was probably a slight change that they'll bill as a huge one :)

Probably a window pane was replaced. :lol:

Apple Temporarily Closing Some U.S. Stores for Security Grate Installations
"Last week, Bethesda Row (MD), Village Pointe (NE), and Crocker Park (OH), and perhaps others were all closed, apparently for the same reason."

Yeah it's been going on for so long hard to tell what was real and what wasn't. Considering nothing came about until the last couple years and it started in 2011....hard to consider anything that was floated or discusses as real.
