“These are three ads I found in the September 3 issue of ‘Entertainment Weekly.’ Sorry about the weird crops that occasionally appear. It’s not exactly easy to scan a two-page perfectly,” MacDailyNews reader “macnut222″ writes on his .Mac website.

See the ads here (hope we don’t exceed macnut222′s .Mac bandwidth limit).

I was more impressed with the Printable Tattoos.

These look like you can print a graphic on special paper and then wrap the paper around your iPod.

Nifty.

The HP link doesn’t say anything about it.

Those are beautiful. Superb use of the uber-recognizable white iPod earbud wires. Give those graphic designers a raise!

They are using allot of sex appeal in that ad, I’m kind of surprised.

I predict that HP will also get a license to market the “Apple iPod Mini by HP” just as soon as apple can strong-arm hitachi into making more of the drives.

izardoz.. how many win users are given a choice?!

most stores hold macs in the back corner of the store, and misinform customers about power (ala MHz myth) and software (12,000 titles +)

choice is one thing, but an informed choice is something else

They emphasize the white earphones a lot. Probably a good idea since they seem to have become a major trademark and icon of iPod use.

That HP link works Whoops. Thanks. I am just glad HP didn’t plaster their logo all over the front of it like Sony and Rio do to theirs. That would be blasphemey. I hope i spelled that right!
