While Pasadena may have been yesterday's best option, today it's looking like lamesville. What comes up, must come down, it seems. Head to the Beverly Center for a practically non-existent line:
The Grove Apple Store: ALL MODELS IN STOCK, 15 minute wait
Beverly Center Apple Store: ALL MODELS IN STOCK, 5 minute wait
Pasadena Apple Store: ALL MODELS IN STOCK, an hour wait
3rd Street Promenade Apple Store: Have hours changed? There's a "closed" message on the store's voicemail as of 8:17am.
Glendale Galleria Apple Store: ALL MODELS IN STOCK, salesperson says, "When I walked in this morning, there were already 30 people."
Century City Apple Store: ALL MODELS IN STOCK, 5-10 minute wait
