    Hey guys

    I am currently typing this from the 24inch iMac on the second floor of the Apple Store in Covent Garden, UK.

    Thought I might celebrate my 700th post from here.

    Gotta say, it is MASSIVE!
    3 floors of Apple related tech!

    Bought a case for my iPod Touch (Gear4 Gaming Grip). Not sure if it is any better for gaming but we shall see.

    Anyone else been to the Covent Garden Store?
    Thoughts and opinions.

    Going to Madame Tussauds later (wax work museum). Looking forward to the horror section.

    Loving it here in London!

    Mad

    I was in there yesterday and found that someone had left their email open on one of the 27" iMacs, so I sent an email out to everyone in their address book telling them not to leave their email open in the Apple Store!

    On topic though, I thought it was a nice place, but overly busy, hence i only saw the ground floor. Will be going back there midweek at some point to have a proper look around. Nicer than the Regent St store, for sure, but not as nice as either of the 2 New York stores I visited a couple of years ago.

    I'd much rather be in New Mexico right now than smelly old London. (Want to swap? :p)

    I'm gonna have to stab you ruthlessly through the lungs for sounding like one of those Apple boys who considers a trip to the Apple store a holiday.
