Oliver Haslam·December 11, 2014

Apple knows that getting potential customers through the door at an early stage increases the chances of them becoming customers for life, which is why it keeps promoting apps that are designed for kids during App Store promotions. If you can get youngsters used to handling iPads and interacting with the App Store at an early stage then they're more likely to buy iPhones and Macs when they grow up. It might sound cynical, but it's a fact of life.

Apple Store iOS App Updated With Support For Apple Pay [Download Link]

Ben Reid·October 21, 2014

One of the major announcements at last month's Apple event - aside from the introduction of two new smartphones and the company's inaugural smartwatch effort - was that of Apple Pay, a contactless, NFC-driven system that would allow iOS 8 users to seamlessly pay for goods at a wide selection of outlets. As excited as we were about this significant new initiative, Apple did make it clear at the time that Apple Pay wouldn't be hitting the scene until this month. With iOS 8.1 now upon us, we're likely to witness a rapid, concerted effort to support the new infrastructure, and this has begun quite close to home today with an update to the Apple Store app.

Witnesses on the scene in New York are reporting that a snowblower has accidentally collided with one of the glass panes in Apple's Fifth Avenue Retail Store.

However, Apple employees will be slightly dismayed to see that such substantial damage has been caused to the $450,000 piece of glass that forms part of the store's iconic "cube" exterior.
