Rolling out across all of Apple’s Retail Stores this morning is the “Retail 2.0” make over. As seen from the picture above, Apple has replaced the paper details display with interactive iPad 2 displays. Cool! Not get-out-of-bed-super-early-on-a-Sunday-morning-and-drive-an-hour kind of cool, but cool none the less.
In addition to the changes to the retail displays, Apple is expected to deploy a new Apple Store iOS app that will allow you to customize your online order, something that is not possible with the original app.
Apple retail employees are getting some new toys also. They are suppose to be outfitted with iPads to help manage the large numbers of customers that come to the store each day. 9To5Mac.com writes:
“The new iPads are imaged with: RetailMe, Apple Connect, Apple Directory, Concierge, and strangely enough, the Easy Pay application (huge credit card readers on the way?!), as well as the standard Mobile Genius and iRepair.”
