Great products? Ipod is a joke and apple have openly admitted to bad initial models are as they will replace any one sent back. Some say consumer service but i think they relize they released it too soon or didn't use up to scratch components. Only for their marketing campaign did ipod's nano's sell so well. It a true test was done i reckon creative wins every time. Ed's point on price is interesting. Finches adopted the same policy when they came onto the Irish market. They wanted people to feel it was a better product. How'd they do it? They said they'd just charge more. Lesson there for anyone starting their own business!! Your kidding me. Great products?

If Apple laptops ever take a majority market share I think they'll stop being as 'cool' - at the moment the price point they're at just keeps average users away - at if my opinion that helps keep them 'cool'.

Don't know what it's like in Ireland, but Reebok Classics are the choice of footwear for chavs in the UK. No doubt their sales have shot up tenfold since the Burberry and tacky gold wearing crew have adopted them, but it must be terrible for their image? I wonder if they had that in mind when they signed up all these top sports people and music stars? Apparently the chavs are moving up market to Prada now so I wonder how Prada react? Speaking of chavs - you've got to watch this: http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=devvo They’ve also had a few big name Americans too - Jay Z and some US basketball star.
