The latest Apple Store is reportedly the largest Apple store in the U.S., taking the title from the New York City 5th Avenue store.

HAH! I think most of us have given up crack, alcohol, and other pleasurable substances and replaced them with 3G iPhone rumors to keep us high!

however, some reports have stated the opposite.

either or, Steve is killing us all.

I love the continuation of the glass panels, and the consistency throughout the Apple stores.

I hope the people inside these glass houses remember they mustn't throw stones.

I dunno. The glass in NYC is pretty thick, so I think it can stop most stones. But I wouldn't want to shower there...

I see this as important in sorting this issue out. Or at least I like to pretend it would. It's driving me nuts.

Interesting timing. Boston is "higher education central", and this store is opening right before commencements of BC, UMass(Boston), Tufts, Wellesley, Amherst, Brown (Providence, RI), MIT, Harvard, and a lot of others. People are coming from all over the world to these events, and returning. The grads already have iPods and laptops, but I wonder if there's anything else they might be able to use. Hmmmmm.
