Apple Gives Retail Stores a Makeover With iPads
Apple has given their retail stores a makeover to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their retail stores. The paper signs next to products have been replaced with iPads to provide customers more interactive information.
This new retail experience is internally referred to as “Apple Store 2.0”.
As expected, Apple retail stores in Australia and other countries are opening up on Sunday with these new changes. MacPricesAustralia has provided the following details:

too many wires around
-
Agreed! Rat's nest of wires. As for not being powered by the dock connector, it probably is, and just using rails into the dock connector from the case.
-
Wow all that secrecy. Was it worth it? Do we care? Will it make you rush to your nearest Apple store?Errrmm.... No (x3)Psst... I will be Blacking out my windows tomorrow. I'm re-launching my livingroom experience. Oh wow world look I've installed a new TV. Don't all rush-at-once to come and look will ya. hehehe

I even locked the cat flap. Just in case my cat went out and told everyone what was happening.
-
The ipads appear to be locked under perspex - does touch work through that (I guess it must - or are they *on* the perspex backing?).The wires they could tidy by having more custom cutouts in their bench for each ipad - and other wires are earbuds - I sincerely hope for hygiene reasons that they don't allow folks to try those earbuds on and then just leave them there without disinfecting...It seems a bit overkill to have all these ipads powered up all the time when a nice bit of printed card would do... they should have proximity sensors that only turn the screen *on* when someone is closeby.
-
Is that iPad 1 or iPad 2?
-
i saw this at the Sydney apple store. They used 100's of ipad 2 on the benches yet none in stock to sell. Sad really.
-
wow. the 10th anniversary really has been celebrated. keep going
-
I will go to the apple store in Soho (New York) today....
-
Tell me about it. They dont have a single 16gb in stock wifi or 3g, just promoting 64gb coz of higher profits.
-
so much for apple being green...
-
So an ipad gives you info about an iPad seems a bit redundant
-
I wanna see Jobs stuffing one of those. That is really stupid anyone that is going to an apple store is going for a reason. And most people already know about IPods IPhones IPads and macs. Waisted money if you ask me. Could have been put to better use helping poor people or people in areas devastated by tornadoes or other disasters. And NO I won't be going. Be ides I saw all this two months ago in Colummbus Ohio at micro center
-
There are IPads available in NY ??
