Steve Jobs makes surprise visit to SoHo Apple store
Apple chief executive, Steve Jobs, on Thursday made a surprise visit to the SoHo Apple retail store located in downtown Manhattan, reports the New York Daily News. Jobs appeared in blue jeans and sneakers, to the surprise of even the store's employees. "The way they keep secrets in this company is crazy," an employee groused to one customer. "I only found out he was here because the managers told us to smile more." But why was Jobs in Manhattan last week? And what other business dealings did he likely show up to address? If you think you may know, please drop us a line.

Imagine going up to the Genius Bar and finding Jobs...
Er, these not these.
Good job and keep it up Jobs!
Maybe he wanted to see if the new stuff already arrived, since the managers etc. won´t even tell him?
