I can't think of a single time we've ever heralded the opening of a business all the way out in Reston, but hey, it's August! There's a new Apple Store opening in Reston Town Center, at 11900 Market Street in Reston, Va. That's according to an email from Apple's customer news service. The big grand opening is set for Monday Saturday, Aug. 15, and if you're one of the first 1,000 visitors, you'll get a free Apple T-shirt! (Aside: that's about the most useless thing we can think of for them to giveaway. Where's our free iPod nanos, Apple?). More details here. There's still no estimated opening date for the District's first Apple Store, which will eventually be located in Georgetown, at 1229 Wisconsin Ave. NW.

on the front, an apple. but on the back, the shirt reads:
"i skipped work and all i got was this lousy t-shirt."
You sure you don't mean Monday, August 17th? Monday, August 15th next occurs in 2011...
Err, Saturday, August 15. Whoops, thanks for noticing that.
This area has the most Apple stores per capita than any other place on the planet.
I can see the future tourism campaigns now ... Silicon Valley types making their way to the Macintosh Mecca, drooling at the Steve Jobs statue made entirely of iPod shuffles and taking pictures with their iPhones ...
P.S., I have this great idea for Apple modernizing one of those old-school virtual reality headpieces. iEyes. Geddit?
The DC area also had the most Starbucks per capita of anywhere outside the Seattle area for a long time.
Another Apple Store in an over-priced strip mall. Sweet.
Geeze, because Reston residents couldn't bear to haul it down Rt. 267 to Tysons? Good grief. Let's hope this overpriced strip mall has better security than Clarendon
Good, the staff at the Tysons location has been slammed by people buying boxes of iPhones as stocking stuffers or whatever.
