SALT LAKE CITY — Google
will open retail stores in the U.S. by the end of this year, according
to "an extremely reliable source's" confirmation to 9to5Google.
According to the report, published Friday, the mission of the stores
will be to get current and upcoming Google products including the Nexus
and Chrome into the hands of potential customers.
Google refuted claims of forthcoming store openings as recently as
December, but the impetus for the change of mind was apparently the
desire to get Google Glass to the public.
