w00t! Apple has made a deal with the media-markt chain of shops and is selling their product line via them.
i visited the amsterdam branch 2 days ago and there they were.
the 3 cinema displays were on display, the 12 and 17" powerbooks were there, although i couldn't confirm whether they were the enhanced ones 'cause the screens were locked.
iPods (only 4th gen) and the iPod Nano (2 and 4 gig versions) and lots of iPod accessoiries.
it made me all warm inside :P
i haven't checked out the prices but i imagine that media-markt will sell Apple hardware for the same price as found in the official Apple stores and the online store.
it just helps bring the Apple products to the average joe on the corner a little easier.
i'm saving up for a 17" powerbook myself but don't think i'll buy my Mac from media-markt but will go to a Apple store, unless there will be a big price difference.
