Good news, Mainers! The long wait for an Apple Store is about to end.To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.

AWESOME!
Last I knew it wasn't opening until November.
This is suhweeeet for us Mainers.
Now if only Portland wasn't a 3 hour drive... Oh well, I'll probably be there anyway on saturday, and I'll try to get some pictures.

Hurrah! I've never even been to an Apple Store—living way up here in Maine.
Thanks for the news.

LOL, and I dearly hope that you are a woman and not a crossdressing Maine-iac.

In NH I'd certainly go to Salem to avoid taxes. Much nicer mall too.
Anyhow, the Apple Store will give me a reason to swing by Portland again once in a while. They will not see any purchases from me though (got plenty of iPods already) until we see new notebooks and/or a mid range mac and updated displays.

Looks like I missed it by a week. Now only if we could get Apple to put a store in the southwest corner of NH then they could get all the Vermonters crossing the boarder to avoid sales tax, and not make me have to drive 1 1/2 hrs just to go to a store.
