Um, where do you live? All of the major C's have one I believe and the one in Columbus is great. Can vouch for that.
Nope unless you live in Atlanta. The Greenville, SC Apple Store has been increased from 4,000 square feet to 5,100 square feet and has been moved from the north side of the complex to the south side of it. New site plan: http://www.magnoliapark.com/siteplan.html Opening is summer-fall 2009. Construction trailer arrived on site last week, so building of the center should start soon.
Downtown Montreal? Eh?
I jog past the proposed Apple site on Ste Catherine Street in Montreal every day, It's been in black box mode since December, when the store was first rumored to open. Canadian job postings still list the store under their employment ops. Anyone know more of when/if it's gonna happen?
No offense to you Easterners but Boise better get a Store before Pocatello or Idaho Falls! My "prediction" three years ago was that Apple would announce a Store in Boise sometime in 2008. I'm beginning to lose hope that it will happen.
There are a few outdoor style mall areas in development though so who knows, maybe they will finally come through and I won't have to drive 12 hours roundtrip to the nearest Store.
Amen, man. I've been wanted an Apple Store here for a long time. With CompUSA gone, we've got Best Buy and Mac Life as our Mac options for in-store purchases. Mac Life is a decent store, but I'd like the original here. (Of course, an official Apple Store would probably put Mac Life out of business.)
For the UK we really need a store in Newcastle. Desparatley. The closest is 2 hours away, 4 there and back.
