The Apple Store Time Machine

Title: You've been here before.

It’s where you bought your first iPod.
It’s where you camped at 5 a.m.
It’s where the iPhone came to life.
It’s where the magic of technology made your world glow a bit brighter, if only for a moment.

And now it’s back.


It’s time to Shop Different.
