“iPod-maker Apple is threatening to sue a sex shop over a vibrator that hooks up to an iPod and has similar advertising to that used in posters for the digital music player,” Simon Jary reports for PC Advisor.
Jary reports, “Apple is demanding that stores remove all posters for the gadget, called an iGasm. ‘We hope this request to remove it immediately will prevent us having to consider further action,’ said Apple lawyers.”
Jary reports, “The Ann Summers neon-pink ads feature a sexy woman with wires coming out of her iPod and into her knickers, teasing ‘ Go at it hard and fast with a pounding drum and bass track or chill with the ambient classic.'”

Ye gods! These hetero breeders have no shame a’tall!

Apple is a bunch of hippies, I would think they would be excited by this (so to speak) alas, the lawyers are not hippies.
I love my iBrator.
That certainly could help make the commute more enjoyable.
@ Toasty!
So only hippies like sex? Well that’s not surprising.
Who wants to screw Carl Rove anyway?
eeeeeeehhhwwwww…
HELLLLOOOOOOO!
Most frequently played song..?
“Orgasm Addict” by the Buzzcocks would probably go down well…
What… no comment from MDN?

I think it might be interesting to see what our host thinks about this 😀
Or does the MDN Magic Word (Well) have anything to do with it?
I’d play “Sex God Missy” by Tad.
MW: ‘freedom’
What?! They didn’t choose the Zunasticasm?
Remember the girls in orgasmic frenzies with the installation error message?
It’s here:
BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HEE HOO HA HA HA HA AH HAH HA!!!
hee hee, ohhhh…sniff….yeah it is a blatant ripoff, Apple definitely needs to go ahead and protect their intellectual HA HA HA HA OH THAT’S RICH AH HA HAH HA HA HA HA
No comment. I’m sure there will be enough innuendoes posted on this thread to go around.
@ Bartsimpsonhead
You said ‘go down’.
huh huhuh huhuhuhuh uhuhuhuh
Veni, vidi, vici!
MW: ‘private’ ( ! )
The Ann Summers company should be very careful not to pick a fight with Apple. Apart from the similarity between that advert and the iPod adverts, there is more than a passing resemblance between the Ann Summers logo and Apple’s logo.
I’m assured that the Ann Summers logo is intended to be a cherry with a bite taken out of it, but until I was told that, I always assumed it was an Apple.
Beryllium, what’s this downing hetero stuff. Oh, right, the lawyers.
Oops.

This one is just too damn easy. For once, I think I’m envious of a device.
Just be glad it’s a gal in the add.
Too bad this is just a poster ad … I’d love to see the video for this one on YouTube !

Chrissy … I’m glad I put the coffee cup down before reading your posts !
It would make more sense to use a WiFi hotspot.
An 802.11g-spot perhaps?
“Who wants to screw Carl Rove anyway?”
Nancy Pelosi in a Rove Raging Range Rover?
digirati: In this context, shouldn’t that be “Vidi, vici, veni”?
BTW, this device TOTALLY explains a lady I saw while driving by the bus stop the other day. My assessment that she was having a seizure deserves another look.
“she was having a seizure”
La petite mort?
The Sony Walkman Bean will come preloaded with “Turning Japanese.” It will give you The Vapors.
The media is its own worst enemy sometimes. If they had never mentioned it the majority of people wouldn’t have ever heard of the iGasm. Now the whole world is gonna find out.
I’m now completely convinced that there aren’t ANY women that post on MDN.
And here I thought I was going to score an online date with an Apple lover.
I tired over on the Microsoft blog site, but all the women there are republican.
Ooooh! Double whammy!
Another American-made sickness and perversion. God has died in the hearts of America. I hope Apple buries those pukes in a pile of rubble from Sea to Shining Sea.
Hmmm.
Lends new meaning to “Click Image to Enlarge.”
Hmmm.
I love it! Needs one for boys!
How cum there are so many discreet gadgets on the market for womens pleasure and none for men?
While you puzzle that conundrum take a look at this M$ fans and weep!

They could modify a canister vacuum with headphones and a hard drive. It would be a little hard to disguise on the daily train commute.
@ Twisted Mac Freak
Of course, if Microsoft made the vacuum, the world would be filled with eunuchs in no time.

@ TMF: Not a problem if you are on a steam train!
Beryllium: Or as the cliche goes, it would be the first MS product that DIDN’T suck. It’s still funny.
Crabapple: You could tell people it’s a medical device and it’s keeping you inflated.
@ TMF: Or you are testing a milking machine?

Ever wonder why there was a brown Zune?
I thought for sure that cretin who has been impersonating me would post on this thread!
I wonder if Bill and Steve watch the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) comedy sketch Harry and Paul – Ruddy Hell!
Here are 3 clips from the shows:
The iHump
Stick It In My Slot
Gates & Jobs can get on
iMaki…
You scare me.
The Ann Summers logo was red and looked like a cherry to me.
I have an iGasm shoved up my ass right now. Who says these are just for women?
To the TowerTone impostor: You can give it up now.
TowerTone, I like the way you think!
They should add the caption, “Love your iPod? Now your iPod can love you back.”
