Virgin iPods
Virgin Airlines is now hooking up front-of-the-plane passengers with iPods in their airport lounges. Besides the obvious questions — such as, "Why aren't rich people's assistants properly managing their own iPods for them?" — Boing Boing has a few queries:
1. What's the use of 40GB of someone else's idea of what kind of music a generic, notional traveller would like to hear?
2. How do you sterlize the earbuds between use? Ever notice the wiry masses of ear-hair spilling out of the first class cabin? Squick.
3. How do you hear your flight being called if you're wearing an iPod?
