Lofting Advertisements

Here's something I want to see, iPod ads adapted for iPod video behavior.

Presently iPod ads featuring undeniably hip youngsters in silhouette dancing to whatever music their iPod is pumping through those also-white ear buds. You know, you've all seen them.

Now imagine with me: A silhouette of a man in rumpled business attire... in an airport departure lounge... seated, hunched uncomfortably... watching the latest episode of Desperate Housewives or The Office.

Sure, it doesn't sound good, but if anybody can make that look attractive, it's the exceptional people at Apple marketing.

Bonus points if the suggested airport background is ORD or ATL.
