Well, we finally have an official opening date for the Atlantic City Apple Store in The Pier at Caesars and its THIS SATURDAY, AUGUST 19th at 11:00AM.

• Apple’s A.C. Store Opening Info
• Direction to the A.C. Apple Store

First 1000 get tee shirts and you can enter to win a Digital Lifestyle Collection valued at over $2100. Get there early if you want a shirt (and I’d really appreciate it if someone could finagle an extra shirt for me because I won’t be able to be there, naturally the opening falls during my vacation.)

Members wishing to organize a group trip or choose a time to meet in line before the opening can do so via comments on this post or by posting messages to the ACAMUG discussion list.

06-Aug-16 Update

The Philly based PowerPage has mentioned the AC Store opening and they’re soliciting people for a Grand Opening party. For some reason their link to the specific posting comes up empty but you can find it by browsing the main page:

• O’Grady’s PowerPage main page
• AC Store Opening Post

They also mention something I hadn’t realized, that the store hours will be the slightly unusual 11AM to Midnight, presumably because of the casino crowds. Sure wish I was going to be around for the opening.
