b>Best Buy is renovating and rearranging the electronics sections of their sales floor, creating solution zones–just like the Apple stores. There are computers grouped with digital cameras and camcorders, and there are expanded sections for cellular handsets, camcorders, digital cameras, PDAs and mp3 players that include iPods. The latter category now has all models displayed at eye level, arranged so visitors can pick them up, operate them, listen, etc.–much better than the previous knee-level display of iPod products I found earlier. Apple officially announced the end of a pilot Macintosh sales program at Best Buy last June, but continues to successfully sell iPods.
