The big question is...what music is she listening to? :)

This is how Apple will bring about World Peace!!!

Apple creates the iPod, embeds a secret chip that when paired to a certain account plays subliminal pre-recorded messages as an inlaid track to slowly brainwash the listener. Traditionally the message is 'Buy Apple Products' but when leaders of the World get an iPod it says 'Bring Anti-Trust suits against Microsoft (and buy apple products!)'. How can people not see this?!?

Yes this message is totally pointless, have a great Friday everyone! For some reason... I have to get to the Apple store now... not sure why...

Time for Apple to create a new ad with a royal silhouette dancing in the background. ;)

Why "God Save the Queen" by the Sex Pistols of course. Oh, no, wait, that's an ANTI-royalty song... :lol:

I saw that as well. A moving picture would be nice though. I'd love to get Vegas rolling again, but free time is something I lack at the moment. :)

Will Apple be posting a "By appointment to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II personal music player manufacturer" slogan and royal coat of arms on the iPod boxes now? ;-)
