Apple's 5th Ave. NYC store built out in Second Life

Of all the fan-made Apple store sims I've seen, this one is the most fetching. This unofficial homage to Apple's 5th Avenue New York store opens next week inside SL. The salesavatars sport excellent hairdos, the go-go dancers have superb racks. I must be shopping at the wrong store here in LA -- I've never witnessed spontaneous iPod ad re-enactments like these when I'm waiting in line to buy an AirPort or a spare LaCie drive.
