Apple Throws Up the Horns; For U2?


Apple cult theorists can add one more adorable proverbial feather to their otherwise corporal caps when word spreads about a certain easter egg I found tucked into a button below a spinning visage of the remade U2-style iPod. (Click the word "spin" in the last sentence of main text and then click the button with the hand on it.) At first I wondered if perhaps Apple had always presented its web-site's viewers with satanic hand gestures as part of the user interface but further investigation revealed that this was something they reserved only for their most "rocking" of products. At least, for their U2 iPod anyway./snooty snoot snoot

Whoa! That's weird. Did YOU actually find that? Or did you just read it from somewhere else? I haven't scowered the blogsphere yet so I'm gonna have to be a bit gullible at the moment. ... what? there's writing on the ceiling?!...

TUAW.com linked to the new Apple page about the redone U2 iPod and I noticed the little easter egg almost immediately. Haven't seen anyone post about it.
