President Obama has given the Queen an Ipod

[Abstract]

He gave her an unwanted gift


imho

Exactly. She's old and rich. She may even have an iPhone and not use any feature on it other than the "phone" feature. "It's my favourite feature", she says. 😉

It's not as if these gifts are groundbreaking monuments of goodwill, they're lighthearted formalities which the Obama family is tasked with presenting to dignitaries. It's not his job to select them.

And really, would you rather have a new 120GB iPod or a signed picture of an old man and old woman?

Considering she asked for the iPod as a gift, your opinion would be wrong. She wanted an upgrade to the last one she bought since the last one didn't play video.

Just doesn't seem like a Queen's gift if you ask me.
