Which Apple stores are "flagship"?

[Bokay]

I've heard that 40 of Apple's stores are considered "flagship" and will be receiving the largest number of iPhones. Obviously the one in NYC is considered flagship, as is the one in Boston, but I'm at a loss as to the others.

Does anyone know where I can find a list of Apple's flagship stores?

I am guessing here, but I think any store with two levels is considered flagship.

New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Tokyo, San Francisco. only 5 in the world.

Hmm, I thought the one in London was as well since it is two stories...

However the term Flagship is misleading. For instance the Apple store in Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego is one of the highest in sales (top 5 - or so I have been told by the employees there on several occasions). Im sure the 5 Flagships will get a lot of iPhones but so will others.

Well technically NYC has two flagships. The 5th ave one is only one level underground but a giant glass cube with a hovering Apple logo has to grant it flagship status, that and the fact it is the only 24/7 one.

The independant have a list of flagship stores, however it is slightly out of date. A flagship store is any store that is located on its own, outside of a mall/shopping centre. They usually have two floors, and a generally bigger and more impressive.

The one in London is on Regent Street

Yeah that San Diego store brings in more revenue than any stores in CA despite its size.
