Tim Cook shows up at Palo Alto Apple Store for iPhone launch
via CNBC
Apple customers waiting in line for the new iPhone at the companys Palo Alto retail location got a special treat on Friday: a visit from Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook.
Cook showed up at the Palo Alto University Apple Store Friday morning to greet the Apple faithful as they queued to buy the new iPhone 5c and 5s. AppleInsider reader Ben reports that Cook "shook the hands of everyone in line and then went on his way."
AppleInsider reader Ben confirms that the gray-topped head pictured here is indeed that of Apple CEO Tim Cook.
Reportedly, the Palo Alto retail location had only 10 gold iPhone 5s units, and the Stanford location sold out of gold units by the 15th customer. That is in keeping with recent reports that show that unit in even scarcer supply than other models. Still, demand remains high for all 5s units, as AppleInsider has been informed that the Palo Alto location also sold out of silver models by the 35th customer.
The launch of a new iPhone has become a yearly media event marked by long customer lines and weeks of hype. Cooks appearance at the Palo Alto location is in keeping with a tradition of Apple executives showing up to product launches. In 2010, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs appeared at the Palo Alto Apple Store for the launch of the iPad, sporting his signature black turtleneck, a hoodie, and ripped jeans.
Additional reports have emerged that other Apple executives have been spotted at other Apple retail locations. Twitter user Salim Hafid (@sqreone) sighted Apples Phil Schiller and Eddy Cue at the companys Stanford store on Friday.

Nexus 5 appears on the Google Play Store at 349 First Official Photo as well
The much anticipated Nexus 5 is nearing its launch and has been spotted on the Play Store at $349. The former working link is dead now. The official description from Google goes as this :
"Capture the everyday and the epic in fresh new ways. Starting at $349"
The description suggests at least several storage version. The dead link was pointing at a 16 GB version and the URL indicates "black", so maybe several colors (black and white at least ?) and hopefully a 32 GB or more Nexus 5.

Google Play Store updated to v5 0 gets more Material Design elements
Google has started rolling out v5.0.31 of the Play Store for Android. The major difference here is in the UI, and it’s approximately 600% more Material Design now.
First up, the action bar on top is now teal (or something close to that) with a new side menu and a cool animation for the hamburger button. The side menu shows the same items now, but the font is smaller.
In app lists you’ll find that the color of the action bar now applies to the categories below as well. As for the app pages, the ‘What’s New’ section is now at the top with highlight and stays at the top instead of going all the way down when you tap the ‘Read More’ button for description.
Other than that I’d say it more or less looks similar with minor design changes here and there. The update has started rolling out but as usual could take days or weeks before it reaches you, so might as well just head over to the source link below and download the APK now.
