The Apple Store, originally uploaded by Jeffery Simpson.

Apple’s having a special press event today in California, to release some new top secret products [il]. When Apple releases new stuff they tend to show up at the local Apple Store that day, or a few days later.

The closest Apple Store to us is in Seattle. Toronto has one, don’t you think it’s time Vancouver got one? Then I wouldn’t have to wait for my new toys to show up in the mail.

    Isn’t there one in Yaletown?

    It’s not an Apple owned store, so it’s not quite as cool. Truth be told I haven’t been in it, but there are a few stores around that sell Apple products like Simply Computing.

    San Diego has two, although they’re at least a 30 minute drive. New York has three or four.

    Yeah, loads of places have them, just not Vancouver.

    There seems to be a lot for Apple products around Vancouver though. Still, there is no shortage of places for a store to “pop up”. I would be one to go there for sure!
