News Item: Apple stores in the virtual realm–perhaps in Second Life.

I found this interesting post at http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9923977-7.html?part=rss&subj=news&tag=2547-1_3-0-5

If Apple is looking seriously at Second life as a platform to market and sell product I would bet that enhanced Mac software, and e-commerce opportunities will be right alongside that initiative. With iTunes, iPods, Apple TV and more Second Life may become a living room based activity as friends and family log on and share the experience. It may well be that the home plasma screen will represent the base for sharing the Second Life experience with the help (of course) of Apple TV, airport and the platform independent virtual world. This will make the experience shared in a way that is currently less accessible.
