O ur friends at MacMinute noted that Apple is now hiring in advance for an Apple Store in Nagoya, Japan. This will mark the third retail store that Apple will open in Japan, adding to a store in Tokyo and a store that will open later this month in Osaka.
Nagoya is one of the largest cities in Japan with more than 2 million people in Nagoya proper, and a few million more in surrounding suburbs and adjoining cities.
In March of 2002, TMO published some photos from a multi-story Mac store in Nagoya called MacMasters.
