Apple Retail Update
Of note, May 19th has recently been casually speculated by users as a possible new release date for the MacBook (Thinksecret believes it will be next tuesday). If this speculation pans out, the grand opening could also serve as a launching point for the much anticipated Macbook.
On the international front, ifoAppleStore.com reports that France may receive an Apple store by the end of 2006 and another in 2007.
