Apple is now shipping a new product to Apple retail stores. I just heard it at a all Apple computer store called plainly "The Computer Store". They said that they were cardboard lifesize stand-ups of Mini-me and Yao Ming. That's awsome!

I don't think you can have lifesize stand-ups of Verne Troyer and Yao Ming, because neither of them is life size. The real Yao is larger than life and the real Verne is smaller than life, so there must be a contradiction there somewhere.

Nice. 😀

I don't think we'll get them in the UK. About 4 people probably know who Ming is, and three of them don't care! 🙁

We'd be luckiy to get anything more than a print ad in some specialist design mag or all the girls' glossies. Oh well. The pain we suffer in the UK...blah...blah...blah.
