Now that was funny


Ellen Degeneris did a parody of the iPhone which was very funny.   Apple evidently grumped.  Come on Apple, this was a funny bit.

Note - Two answers to the question "how can you tell if a person has an iPhone?"  a) They tell you.  b) There is an ap for that.

C'mon Mr.Macintosh, don't be so sensitive. It's only a joke, you guys should have confidence in your product considering everyone's trying to copy everything you guys release. I think the whole sparring match between them Adobe and Google has them on pins and needles.

As noted above, I thought Ellen was very funny. That is her type of humor. I was trying to say, Apple should lighten up. In the end both the original bit and her equally funny expression of contrition showed well on Apple. I think they should have recognized it. One of the fun things about Apple's own ad campaigns has been their winsome nature. They should have recognized the humor.
