Apple Store Finally Coming to Dublin?

I’ve written about it before, and many of us have wondered why Apple doesn’t have a retail presence here, but it looks like all that is finally about to change. According to this weeks Sunday Tribune….

Apple, maker of the iPhone and the Mac computer, is looking to open a shop in Dublin and has hired property advisers Jones Lang LaSalle to find a suitable premises.

The shop will be run by Apple’s UK licensee and is likely to be about 6,000 square feet over two levels.

….

(Apple) is understood to have looked at the former Habitat shop at Suffolk Street and the former Dunnes Stores at Grafton Street in recent months.

In the highly unlikely event that anyone from Apple or the property advisers reads this may I suggest Dundrum Town Center? It has considerably higher footfall that the city center shops, especially anything on Suffolk street, and is surrounded by other high profile stores like Gap, H&M, House of Fraser.
I’m just saying !
Anywhere would be good though. I’m not overly fond of the current retailers in this country, some of whom are loosing stores rapidly. It would be nice to have access to a genius bar and a wide range of Mac products without having to order online. People do still like to browse you know.
Anyway, fingers crossed.
