Silhouettes Are SO Last Week

A story we linked to earlier about iPod Mini’s hinted at this, but the cat is officially out of the bag. The iPod silhouette ads are history. From print ads, to promo materials, to commercials installed on computers - resellers have been told to yank the ads and toss them. Some reports are even claiming that Apple requested larger promo items to be cut up to prevent them being sold on eBay. So far there’s not an official reason, but speculation ranges from expiring music rights to the launch of a new campaign.
