Watch out, elderly iPod users


Some 17-year-old high school kid in Okemos, Mich., has done a study that suggests iPods can interfere with your pacemaker and, I guess, cause you to have a heart attack. See here. Fact is we’ve known about this for quite some time. And we’re happy about it. We even cranked up the voltage on our new models. Thing is, we really don’t want old people using iPods. Ruins the image. Every time I see some elderly person wearing an iPod and power-walking at the mall I just want to scream. If we could find a way way to make iPods interfere with fat people we’d do that too. So far we can’t come up with anything. Ideas, anyone?
