The BlackBerry store was scheduled for today to open at 10:30 a.m today. ”This is the only store in the world strictly BlackBerry,” said Bill Swift, the managing partner for Airport Retail Management.  ”It provides customers with significant items to choose from, and staff expertise. The store has all the batteries, headphones, and software that you can imagine for any BlackBerry device.”

All the BlackBerry store staff members have been trained on all aspects of the BlackBerry for three months before being assigned to the store.  Expect to deal with professionals upon entering. 

The BlackBerry store offers customers all of the smartphone models, as well as devices such as the Remote Stereo Gateway, which allows a user to wirelessly play music stored on a BlackBerry through a stereo system.

A really cool device they have there called the Impatica ShowMate, is available for BlackBerry users who want to boycott their laptops and stick to their BlackBerrys.  ”It allows you to connect the BlackBerry to a LCD projector, and be able to do a PowerPoint presentation right through the library,” said Swift.  That’s definitely some neat technology we haven’t seen appear from RIM yet.  As exciting as it is, you can go ahead to Atlanta yourself to see this store.
