Apple announced today that it would open a second official retail store at 9am this Saturday (9 August), in the Sydney suburb of Chatswood.

Located at 345 Victoria Ave, in the Chatswood Chase Shopping Centre, the new Apple store will have similar features to the CBD-based store, including a "Genius Bar". According to a statement from Apple, the store will also include "Apple's entire product line". The store will be open seven days a week.

The Apple store will also allow people to register online for a range of workshops, including one-on-one training and teaching sessions for children. While workshops teach a range of Apple software including Final Cut, OS X and iWork, Adobe's CS3 will also be offered.

The Apple store will also include training sessions for businesses on migrating to Apple products, with the Apple website claiming the workshops create "no obligation to buy".

The Chatswood store will be Apple's second Sydney-based retail store, the first of which opened in the CBD on 19 June.

      The D-Link Xtreme N Duo Media Router DIR-855 is a stable performer with an excellent Web interface — you may want to wait for a price drop though.

      Linksys' WAG160N resides in an attractive package, and manages better than most Wireless N routers. Better than most, but still nowhere near the hype.

      It's not much of a looker, and it struggles in signal strength, but Billion's 7300N ADSL2+ Modem/Router has grunt where it really counts.

      Aside from its potentially worrisome heat output, the Linksys WRT310N Wireless-N Gigabit Router is a networking dynamo with chart-topping performance and a sleek (maybe too sleek) design.
