    Just a t-shirt.

    I hope this eases some of the strain on the Chadstone store. That place is packed 24/7

    No free MacTalk stickers or badges for anyone now - they won't be done in time

    Any good places for a lunch time meet up? Say around noon-1PM?

    Wow 2 Australia store openings in one month.

    If I recall correctly TGIF is nearby. The food court in Doncaster is also well laid out.

    TGI's is in the same site.... its probably the best option, however there are a heap of choices in the food court and up stairs in "the drum".

    I wont be hanging around... I have to broadcast football on community radio in the early afternoon, so i need to go and set up.

    As a result, I need to be in and out fairly quickly! SO... what is the general consensus of what time people are getting there??

    I'll be down for the opening (probably bring my other half along) but we won't be up early. We'll probably arrive between 8am and 9am and then do some shop browsing afterwards.

    Well, so much for Apple not opening any new stores due to the ecom downturn. Then again, I guess these stores where in the works before the downturn.
