New Apple Retail Store: Palm Desert, CA
April 17, 2010
For those of you who live, or visit, the Coachella Valley, you’re probably quite aware about the effort it takes to buy or fix anything Apple-related. There are other inferior Apple retailers around, but they don’t get the same perks that a big Apple retail store does. And if something breaks, and you need a genius bar appointment, it’s gonna require 2 hours of driving… sometimes just to find out the fix was only a click or two.
All this hassle is about to disappear, as Apple is slated to launch a new retail store on El Paseo in Palm Desert. Part of what will soon be the El Paseo Village, the Apple Store will be facing the street, and occupy a 4780 square feet space. Construction should begin early summer, with the Apple Store opening alongside the rest of the mall in early fall. [The Desert Sun]
