There can be absolutely no doubt about Apple's first official store in the southern hemisphere coming to Sydney, with a giant banner which was uncovered announcing the store on George Street today.
A lack of information on the part of mobile carriers, third-party resellers and Apple itself has left the Australian public in the dark when it comes to knowing exactly where it can buy the much-anticipated iPhone 3G handset when it launches Friday morning.
The new interactive Telstra "flagship" store will be open from 2 November. Dubbed T.Life, the store is located at 400 George Street, on the corner of George and King on the group floor of the Telstra building.
One week after the Australian launch of Apple's much-anticipated iPhone 3G handset, locals keen to buy the device are still queuing outside the company's only Sydney retail store.
The Creative TravelSound i50 is a fine choice for iPod Shuffle owners looking for a powerful portable speaker that integrates the player seamlessly, but there are better sounding options out there.

The MYTube iPod dock throws everything it can into a dock, and then a little bit more. Only some of it sticks, mind you.
Have you tried squeezing blood out of a stone? How about music out of a pebble? The Samsung S2 Pebble is a screenless MP3 player with an LED just under the surface that blinks different colours as you listen to music.
The Creative Zen X-Fi is finally here, and while it fits in the pocket and sound quality is excellent, the iPod Touch is still a superior product.
iPhone 3G owners have a strong incentive to splurge on Altec Lansing's T612. Every other iPod owner should look elsewhere, though.

What a freaking joke. Whats so special about this anyway? Can't understand why someone would want to spend 30 hours queuing up to see Apple products when they're readily available online. Its Apple..all hype and no substance anyway and wayy overpriced. Looks like the store is the same.
