Living in Shanghai is awesome. But there are some things that have always bugged me about living in the city. But now thanks to Steve Jobs I can cross the lack of a local online Apple store off that list.

The site represents the 37th online store for Apple, and from where I’m sitting it’s the most important of the lot. Granted I’m sitting in Shanghai, but that’s not really the point.

Concerning the launch of the site, Tim Cook, Apple’s COO, said “We are thrilled to open our newest online store in China.” He continued. “With personalized engraving, configure-to-order options and free shipping on everything, the Apple Store is a great destination for our customers in China.”

Have a look, and start saving in time for Christmas. And if you were wondering, I want iPad.

For all your Apple related needs head to http://store.apple.com/cn/ and release your inner pretentious hipster.
