Good vibes from iPod plug-’n-play
p2pnet.net OT news:- British “adult product line” manufacturer Ann Summers has combined The Beachboys’ hit ‘Good Vibrations’ and the term ‘plug-’n-play’ for a whole new experience ;P
According to Britain’s News of the World, or News of the Screws, as it’s popularly known, Apple is blowing a fuse over a new device created specifically to help users get more pleasure from their iPods.
Is it because Steve jobs didn’t think of it first?
That’s it on the right, and it was created to work, “hand-in-hand with the Apple iPod for the pleasure of females,” says iGasm.
Er, yes. Um ….
It goes on:
The product claims to ‘vibrate’ to the song’s beat, providing a sexual euphoria of sounds and feelings that has not yet been attempted on such a mainstream basis. If you test out the product, we’re eager to hear how the experience differs depending on your preference of genres. For example, Louis Armstrong fans may not have such a ‘Wonderful’ but rather boring experience while a rock fan plugging in to ‘Bulls on Parade’ may have their own little ‘Rage Against the Machine’.
It’ll cost Brits 30 quid (59.5696 US dollars, 44.3387 Euros, 7,228.37 Japenese yen, 2,408.54 Indian rupees, 339.181 Egyptian pounds, and so on 
But what seems to have really upset Steve & Co isn’t the device. It’s the graphic used to advertise it.
“The neon-pink ads feature a curvaceous girl with wires coming OUT of her MP3 player and INTO her knickers,” says the News of the World. “And it’s definitely turned on.”
It finishes up:
“But Apple lawyers claim the poster is a blatant rip-off of their own famous silhouette images used to flog iPods. Their haughty legal letter to the shop chain adds: ‘We hope this request to remove it immediately will prevent us having to consider further action’.”
Stay tuned.

Tired of being treated like a criminal? They depend on you, not the other way around. Don’t buy their ‘product’. Do bug your local politicians. Use emails, snail-mail, phone calls, faxes, IM, stop them in the street, blog. And if you’re into organizing, organize petitions, organize demonstrations and then turn up on your local political rep’s doorstep, making sure you’ve contacted your local tv/radio station/newspaper in advance. Don’t just complain. Do something!

Pretty funny stuff.
I don’t think there is much merit to the legal threat, any more than any opposition to the massive amount of spoofs of the “I am a Mac, I am a PC” commercials. So few lawyers have a good sense of humour.
I have to wonder, though — is this still more male-focused technology based on how we would like to fantasize about women with earphones, or was this actually designed by a woman?
