New Apple Stores?

Thank goodness! California was in imminent danger of running out of Apple stores! Actually, based on population, it's not silly to have so many in California. But if you live in Montana, I can see how it might be annoying.

I agree,living in Montana would be annoying.

Why in the world will Apple not open a Apple Store in San Antonio, TX or Austin, TX. It is not easy to drive all the way from SA to Houston or Dallas.

you mean the republican state? :D . You won't be receiving any Apple stores until you cease and decease from producing people like G.Bush :p
 
Yeah I go by the SF store everyday on my way to work. It's going to be pretty amazing. I hope they do the giant spinning apple sign like in Japan. The building that was there before was huge. I can only imagine what apple will do with a brand new building on the site. Right now the outside framing is up and they are starting to cover that will black fabric.

Oh, I understand now, producing incapable politicians=no Apple stores!

That explains why Arkansas has three fewer than Texas for a total of 0, but not why California (which was responsible for the stellar Gray Davis and some absolutely brilliant energy policy) has near twenty now. Please, Apple is about business and not politics. If you'd like to make a political statement, do it with your vote or in the politics forum, but not here.

Fer cryin' in the beer folks...;)

P.S. - it's cease and desist, but I'm sure you, in your infinite enlightenment, already knew that...

Seriously though, a nice big apple store in dowtown toronto would flourish, id go down every weekend and admire the new products that i cant afford or dont need, wich is pretty much what i do at the resellers near me (i stand there and look at the ipods(damn it when mine going to arrive) and g5s etc for hours)but an apple store would be so much bigger and more complete with every product and stuff. the one disad to building one in downtown toronto would be it would drive half the resellers under.:eek:

Yep.

Nothing to do with igloos although maybe the iMac dome was inspred by them. Has everything to do with sending Celine Dion here. Take her back and Apple Stores are yours.

I guess Canada does deserve an Apple Store. How about locating it in the greater downtown area of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.
 
South Carolina still has 0 Apple stores, we may have Columbia,Charleston and Hilton Head but we aint got no Apple store! just thought id mention it in case Steve Jobs is looking in tonight.

MISSION VIEJO!! HALLELUJAH!!!! :D :D :D

Finally, I don't have to drive all the way up to Fashion Island... yay! :cool:
 
If Apple had any sense, they'd put an Apple store on King street in downtown Charleston, SC. It is a very hip and trendy place, and is in need of an Apple store. Every time anyone sees my iBook they are full of questions. Everyone loves it, but doesn't know where they can try one out. People want to buy Macs in Charleston (and the entire state for that matter) but not simply based on photos online. Apple would make a killing here.

We have a Saks, Pottery Barn, Gucci, all the upscale trendy places. Every women wears Seven jeans here. This is a very cosmopolitan city, and is perfect for the Apple brand. (I'm being marginally sarcastic here, but Apple would fit in).

If you've ever been here you will understand what I'm saying. Sure Charlotte is only 3 hrs away, but Charlotte is trying too hard to be a "young professional" "big-city." It's manufactured. Charleston is real.

Just my 2 cents. But 3 hrs away is better than Atlanta, at 5 hrs.

djtet, do you agree? We actually spoke about this via email several months ago.

How far do you live from Charlotte? Didn't you see they're building one for Charlotte. Should be good for people within one hour from Charlotte.

Though for southern South Carolina, dunno. SC doesn't have that much people nor does it have any real major cities like NC does.

Edit: Totally forgot to ask, but the Charlotte one is supposed to be 4,000 square foot? Wow, how large are the flagship Apple Store? Is 4,000 square foot enough for a flagship Apple Store? Just curious.
 
store_map.jpg

This shows all the stores for this yr and possible future stores.

Take for instance my state AL.
I know we've got one store on the way next yr. On this map it's represented by a orange dot. So this means the orange dots will be places were Apple plan's to open a store in 04'. Yellow to me then would represent future stores maybe 05' and beyond. Right now it looks good for me because if they put two more stores in our state by 2005 then it will only be like a 40 min drive for me to both stores.

This is showing future expansion of the Apple stores. Besides the current ones being added this yr.
 
I know for a fact the orange dot in my state is in the same location they have said the new store will be. But since I have no idea of what the yellow means I can only guess 05' stores or possible stores as they maybe neg. leases and such.
 
Right on. Providence NEEDS an Apple store. In fact, I cant think of anywhere in Providence where you can buy a Mac, besides an iPod at Filenes which doesn't count.

Ew! The Montgomery Mall in Bethesda is so ghetto! If Apple wanted to build in the DC metro region, outside of VA, then it should find space on M Street in Georgetown... THAT is the prime, high class, big bucks retail area in the region. People in Bethesda may have a lot of money, but I really don't think they spend it at that ghetto mall :)

Also, they REALLY need to get into Providence Place as soon as possible.

I agree with that I would never go over to that hole in the earth. Columbia Mall or White Flint wouldn't be so bad. Or some place downtown. But Montgomery mall is just nasty.
 
Now if you notice in TX. we have big splotches of yellow instead of dots. My guess these will be flagship stores or main shipping hub, or alot smaller stores in one area...like in CA.

The map is from a site that is dedicated to all Apple Store info. They even have info on where Apples furniture and such came from and who designed the looks and so forth.
