5th Avenue cube revealed!
TUAW reader Dave Thorup lives in NYC, and decided to wander down to the 5th Avenue Apple Store that's scheduled to open this Friday. He was lucky enough to witness the unveiling of the huge glass cube that marks the store's entrance, and he took these photos.
Thanks so much for sending these in! That place is going to be incredible (and the Apple logo looks really cool lit up at night).
Photo courtesy Dave Thorup.
Update: Dave's bandwidth limit was used up, however, he posted the entire set to Flickr. Have a look.

I thought there was a press event today at the new store. When is it? Do we get some live coverage?

My site is back up (the original source for the photos). There were some mysql configuration problems that threw the server into a fit. Hopefully things will be back to normal now.
