First time in Apple store
Don't know about people over here, but over Christmas, I had the fortune (or blew my fortune?) on visiting the new Apple stores in London's Regent Street as well as the one in Bluewater, Kent.
The shops are huuuuge! Even with the crowds of people, the shops aren't cluttered like Windows and PC shops on Tottenham Court Road. The layouts are fantastic with the kids corners (I guess indoctrinating them early is important).
The only really disappointing thing is the way that Apple seem to have invested a lot in the Sennheiser HD205 headphones for the iPods - the sound is so inferior compared to the DJ HD25 earphones which I've been convinced are superb for travel and audiophile quality.
Anyone else recently been in an Apple store to write home about?
