I actually had no idea they opened one in Reading
. I still covet an Oxford store because the authorised Apple retailer we have in town here (Western Computer) is a disgrace.
Ontario has enough apple stores, three in Toronto alone, bring one to the maritimes. Us East of Quebec need to drive 9 hours to get to the nearest Canadian apple store
Metro Vancouver has 3, soon to be 4 stores all connected by rapid transit
Come on Apple! Open one in Windsor, Ontario. I hate traveling the border just to go to the Apple store. Don't get me started on the duty fees you need to pay if you declare your items...
Although I ordered my mac online (no way to get to an apple store), I am glad that one is not too far, because I would not want to mail my stuff in for apple care.
It works for advertising, repairs, and sales, these mac stores are a necessity. As long as they do not add too much (like starbucks) they should be fine. there are a lot going on, but we have to remember that this is a multinational business expanding throughout various countries as well!

Amsterdam, plz.
Amsterdam, plz.
very nice,
I really like going to these stores even though I typically don't buy anything (order online usually)

Good work Apple - more Canadian stores and more dollar parity prices for new products. Also glad to hear iTunes Matching will come to Canada one month after the US.
Toronto Apple Store
I don't understand why, the only Apple Store in the heart of Downtown Toronto is a smallish mall sized store. It's always rammed, repair times are 10-14 days, it makes no sense why they dont have something more substantial. Toronto is Canada's New York, they need to open a flagship store here to replace or add to the one in the Eaton Center.

Yeah, that must be nice.
People from Ontario and BC can **** off, they have their apple stores, they dont need any on the doorstep. We in the maritimes dont have any. Likely because of the stereotype that were all old farmers won dont care about technology which is entirely false.
I just wish they'd increase the size of the Apple Store in downtown Palo Alto.
C'mon, Steve, you know the one I'm talking about.
Gotta get used to the new CEO, huh?
I think you're going to waiting a while. There aren't any places in Canada that have one that have regional populations under 200,000.
Maybe Sudbury will get one eventually. I can't see them going any further North than that - and there's a whole lot of space south of it that wouldn't make much sense. I think they'll fill out other areas first.
Come on Niagara Falls there are enough Apple Stores west of Toronto, we need one east of the GTA.. There is one in Ottawa then the next closest store is Yorkdale Mall in Toronto.
I think it's funny that Apple is opening as many stores in a week as Microsoft has planned to open in 2-3 years. MS is really really bad at copying.
