Apple opening up to 50 new Apple Stores next year

During a media event at the new Apple Store opening in Manhattan Apple senior VP of retail, Ron Johnston, announced that they will be opening 40 to 50 new retail stores next year. They also said that they will be focusing on larger stores, most likely similar to the giant location they debuted in New York City. Most of these stores will be in other countries however, in cities like London, Paris and Shanghai. This is good news for Apple fans in those cities, now they can wait in long lines at the Genius bar and be hounded by hipster employees.
