Update: Patrick lets us know that Towa Tei will be giving a talk there this Thursday (June24). It’s actually part of a SAL magazine event that “will introduce…

    We start another Saturday morning at Kamiyacho, paying visit to the Tokyo Medical and Surgical Clinic (without going into details, things are better now, and this will hopefully be the last visit for a long time). Instead of staying in the area like previous weeks, we hop on the the subway to backtrack two stations…

    Seems like a launch for the iTunes Music Store in Japan is getting close. It had already been announced last month that Apple was in negotiations with record labels, but there are now reports that staff at the Ginza Apple Store are telling customers to expect a launch in the spring.

    I’m at the new Apple Store in Ginza right now, using one of the 18 iMacs that are freely available for Internet use and video chatting. It’s nice to be in a place where you know everyone is pretty much a Mac user. I was at the Genius Bar getting my iBook looked at, and…

    Check out the new Apple Store opening in Chicago tonight. Beautiful. Can’t wait for the Ginza store to open, sometime early next year I think. It’ll be the first international Apple Store.

    According to this article, they’re going to open a real Apple store (meaning owned by Apple) in Tokyo’s Ginza area this Fall. This will be the first Apple store outside of the US. It definitely would not have made sense to open it in Akihabara (the purpose of the stores is to showcase to new…

    What is TB.Pensar? Find out here. I thought MONOCLE had killed my keyboard. Huh? Thursday night, an unfortunate accident — and the fact that the space around my work area has gotten a bit out of control — saw a pile of stacked magazine fall over, with the latest issue of MONOCLE crashing on my…

    What is TB.Pensar? Find out here. Well, here I am, writing this from Apple Store Ginza. This week’s updates from Apple have not been kind to my MacBook Pro, first the 10.4.10 update screwing with my wireless connection (Airport card) and battery, and then yesterday’s Superdrive firmware update killing it. I brought in my MBP…
