Somewhat of a vent:
So, the Apple Store at the Tacoma Mall just opened on Saturday as the largest in Washington state, and yesterday I saw two guys steal three iPads just as the mall was about to close. I took my little sister to see the wonder that is the iPad (she really wants one now) and as we left the iPads to look at the iMacs the two guys had moved over to the iPads, which were right near the entrance/exit of the store, right after looking at the iPod Touches and within about 25-30 seconds a loud alarm went off and the two thieves were out the door, I had tried to chase them but they were too far ahead and out the exit in less than 10 seconds.
For some reason I have this anger inside me that makes me wish that I hadn't left the iPad area, so that I could have stopped the theft. I am also angry that low-life scum stoop to these levels. Don't get me wrong, I can understand people stealing food when they can't afford it and have no other choices, but "A" holes likes these are just sad. I hope that they fix the security situation at the mall to have someone near by because it seems like it's just too easy to steal iPads and book without being caught. Has anyone else seen problems like this? Do any Apple Stores have their own security?
