Augusta Mall is getting an Apple Store next month. This work in progress is two doors down from The Chop House in the Promenade area of the mall. Below are just a couple of shots… I’ll try to get more over the coming weeks and update this post as progress becomes more evident. UPDATE: Apple […]

Too Late?
Augusta’s finally getting an “official” Apple Store, but is it too late? ifoApple Store reported yesterday: “All of Georgia’s Apple stores are clustered within a 27-mile circle north and east of Atlanta, but not for long.

RefreshAugusta
I had the idea to start a local group for a while now. Having read about the success of Refresh in other cities, I was intrigued to try and do something like it here in Augusta, Georgia. It wasn’t until recently that I started to get serious with the idea. Tonight we’re holding our first […]

An Apple Retail Void

Apple now has over 170 retail locations globally, and a majority of those are in the continental United States. Augusta (specifically Columbia County) or even Columbia, SC would make prime locations for an […]
