Technology giant Google is taking on gadget king Apple in store wars with the launch of its first ever high street shop. The internet company came off line to open the doors of the world’s first Google Shop in the heart of central London - just a few roads away from Apple’s flagship store in Regent Street. Next week it plans to open stores in Fulham, West London and Thurrock, Essex in a bid to stop Apple’s march on the tech world with more than 700 million iPhones sold since their launch in 2007.
Let the games begin (in my family). Son at Apple, daughter at Google. LOL.
