Ginza Apple Store - Getting Ready
November 28, 2003

The Ginza (Tokyo) Apple store continued to be busy on Friday, as the press and special guests made tours, and received special presents: a black T-shirt inside a special box. Passersby grew more curious about the store, and were frequently stopping to study the window displays, the store interior, and to snap photos with their wireless camera telephones. Ron Johnson (Sr. V-P Retail) and Steve Cano (store manager) were both inside meeting and talking with visitors.
