Installation and future developments

As an app developer, are you expected to buy the iBeacons and then get permission from store owners to install them so that you can use them for your app, or does Apple plan to install beacons into big retail names in the future like Wal-Mart and Target? If so, do we know of a time line when that will start happening?

Apple isn't installing anything. The presence of iBeacons would be up to the venu owner.
