A Puerto Rico-based magazine publisher has created a promotion for one of its Web sites that states that Apple will open store on the island in 2009. But a closer look at the poster for “Caribbean Business” reveals that the news item is simply an exaggerated sample of what information might appear on the new Web site. The magazine is part of several published by Casiano Communications, which claims to be the largest Hispanic publisher of magazines and periodicals in the United States. The iWant MUG of Puerto Rico has been asking Apple to locate a store on the island for the past two years, but so far there’s been no evidence that Apple intends to locate there.
On a promotional poster for one of its publication’s Web sites, Casiano Communications explains the various section of the page. One obvious items refers to Apple opening a retail store in Puerto Rico “in Jan 2009.” The “read more” link in the text box is not active, since the entire page is only a sample graphic image.
