Bellamy Posted November 22, 2006 at 02:49 PM Posted November 22, 2006 at 02:49 PM Apple Japan's Ginza Store Is Awesome If you thought Apple's flagship US store in NY was great, take a look at Ginza, Japan's palace of iPods. The store holds about 1,000 Nanos, which are just sitting around, waiting to be purchased or stolen—and guards to make sure the latter rarely happens. Other than the huge number of iPods and Macs, there are video monitors on each floor displaying what's there and giving you directions to the floor that has what you want. Most interestingly, Apple’s flagship Ginza store has now been outfitted with video pillars that explain what’s on each of the store’s floors. The tall (rather than wide) monitors play back floor-by-floor videos (right click to download properly) that are amongst the most wicked in-store demonstration videos we’ve ever seen - like something straight out of the movie Total Recall, only better. The smaller Shibuya store is sporting an iPod Bar in addition to its Genius Bar for Macs, paralleling what’s going to take place in updates to the U.S. stores over the next year.Read the full article here: http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/...-japan-11-2006/ http://www.ilounge.com/assets/images/features_japan2006/8.jpg http://www.ilounge.com/assets/images/features_japan2006/9.jpg Quote Please support the forum by ordering everything through our special Amazon.com link Click here.
