A relocated kids' area is coming. I have sent pictures to Gary and I suspect he will get them posted soon.

The presentations are great. I don't know how many times I have sat in on the iPhoto workshop but I always seem to hear someone ask a question about some area of the app that sheds some additional light. With regard to our friend Eric on the other side of the pond, I wish we could squeeze things a bit and keep both the theatre and gain Studio and iPod Bars but alas the Grove store has only about 4000 square feet (371 sq meters) minus however big the stairwell hole is, of actual retail floor space, compared to 23000 square feet (2136 sq meters) for Regent Street. I'm not sure if that 23000 is the retail space or if that includes back of house. I echo jrgtampa. The presentations are great.

Keep the theatres in all the stores that have them. I really enjoy the presentations and the sense of community they create. I've met a lot of nice Apple enthusiasts while seeing presentations in the Tampa store, which, by the way, is rumored to be loosing it's theatre to a studio bar very soon too. I agree.

They're removing the theater and replacing it with The Studio instead. The store is already under rennovation… it’s under construction.
