Apple: 8,000 points of Mac distribution goodness

According to ZDNet, UBS analyst Ben Reitzes says that Apple has ramped up its Mac distribution this year to 8,000 from 5,800 last year. That's one whole heck of a lot more places to buy Macs than there used to be.

In other Apple news that I'm only just catching up on from two weeks ago, Cingular claims that smart phone sales have dipped in advance of Apple's June iPhone launch. All I can say to that is wow. If that's true, the demand for the iPhone is going to be absolutely huge.
