Apple has officially announced the grand opening of its first China retail store for July 19th at 10 a.m., inside The Village of SanLiTun in Beijing. The three-level store is within a new development that includes several other international retailers, including Nike, Adidas and Sephora. The store’s location northeast of city center was Apple’s second choice, after a government renovation of Qianmen Street near Tiananmen Square wasn’t completed in time for Apple to outfit its space. Apple has also posted a Web page for the store showing its calendar of events and a map of the store’s location.
In an e-mail to Chinese Mac users on Thursday morning, Apple announced the SanLiTun store grand opening with a red-colored graphic that features a set of iPod earphones. Does the loop of the cords resemble the Olympic rings in any way?

Please tell me the address of the apple store at China and also tell me how could I buy a genuine apple product from China? I am from Bangladesh, and I found that there is a great demand of apple product here. So, I want to be a local distributor of apple in Bangladesh, through your partnership. Thanks & looking for your positive response. [IFO -- Check the store's Web page for full location information.]
