Very well said indeed. That is really what separates apple (IMHO) from the others. I remember even SJ sometimes randomly pops up on an Apple Store to "mingle" with the crowds.
Got a tip for us?

Comfy as hell
<RandQuestion>The bosses trainers (sneakers to the Americans) look really comfortable. Anyone know the brand? </RandQuestion>

I Love You All!!!
For real?
the reason is there will be more people being inconvenienced if they do that on launch day... there are only so many apple crews in stores to deal with hordes of iphone customers getting their first products.. imagine adding a trade-in option at launch day as well?
It's great that Tim Cook showed up and I agree with all the positive remarks. Steve jobs did also show up at the stores for launches and even on regular days.
The only thing I don't like is the thick white soles on his shoes. I'm never making the mistake of buying thick white soled shoes again. It does look sorta bad.
But if we're criticizing dress codes, lets not get into how Steve Jobs dressed please.. I mean even in his keynotes. I think it's a tongue-in-cheek thing. "I have all this money and I could easily invest in some image/dress consultants, but I'm just gonna dress how I like and be my geeky self." That's how I've always seen it.
Steve would never have done this...
You sure about that?
I actually have a pic of Jobs standing at the doorway for the opening of the 5th Ave Apple store - Nice doorman
I guess you won't be wearing any Vans or Chuck Taylor Converse anytime soon.
Steve just like to dress like his hero in SF... Jerry Garcia.
Sad right?
That is as sad as saying, I'm lucky, and blessed, and privileged and beautifully sculpted and sucks to be them for being in that bad corner of the world, but I'm just going to enjoy.
The truth, the truth is that you're not in your own little corner. You're in a big fat world, those people depicted in the spread are in little corners of the world being neglected by all of us who are so "blessed" baby.
I love you all so much!

Fo - realz yo fo realz. Actually happening right now in the world aligned with the iPhone releases - like a parallel universe but not. Cos it is fact
Is fact for realz?
I love you all so much!

Instead of clapping Tim Cook should check into the security measures at his Apple stores because an NBA ball player from the Phoenix Suns got arrested today for allegedly shoplifting over $14,000 worth of merchandise from an Apple store in Scottsdale, AZ. Wow......
Steve would never have done this...
Actually...

Your comment makes absolutely no sense. Apple has a trade in program for all the carriers' iPhones, it is just an inconvenient program and should be fixed.
He'd tell you "you are holding it wrong". He probably wouldn't, but that's what I would say if I were in his place.
Seriously, if you had a chance to talk to Tim Cook and maybe actually learn something from a man who is one of the most successful business men in the world, you would waste your time on some pointless moaning?
----------
Seems the security measures worked just fine then.

Angela.. it's spelled "honour"...
/sarcasm
From Wikipedia: "Angela Ahrendts is an American businesswoman..." In her language, it's spelled "honor".

He doesn't dress like any teenager I know.
What a lovely CEO Tim is - genuine, kind and happy. You're a super man, Tim - God bless you
It is part of the charade as no one in a right mind receives any pleasure from shaking an unwashed hand of someone who slept all night on the street among a number of other hygiene issues. I am surprised he did not wear gloves and a mask.
I never wanted to tell you this, but I don't look at you guys because you all give me the creeps.
Lol, it's true though, CEOs tend to be arrogant as hell. I wonder what the point is where they stop talking to people. Senior management? VP? Chairman? CEO?
----------
Not everyone's a germophobic, hypochondriacal tool. I imagine it's at least partially genuine. Apple doesn't really need the PR.
Although I suppose it does get sites like this one buzzing about how down-to-earth he is.
That said, all the comments about the jeans/t-shirt are silly. That's always been Apple's dress code, with the possible exception of the Scully days.
