I wonder if Steve Jobs loves that people keep appending an "i" to their products in an Apple-like fashion, or if he thinks they're stealing his thunder. Either way, you put an i in front of a simple word, and you suddenly have an attention-grabbing product name.
At least the latest perpetrator of this iCrime, the iPot, is actually pretty useful and attractive, not unlike Apple products in general, so it's not an offhand association. As a little desk lamp, the iPot provides an LED light in a glowing white pod, charges on a USB cord, and is affordable: just $19. Light it up! Do you like it?

I am even sick of all the iStuff. These little pots look cute. I am a sucker for anything with an LED in it that glows blue.
1Seems like a waste of money and materials. I love my gadgets, but enough is enough.
2It'll be even cooler if it actually had a purpose. Like, I seen one that told you how your stocks were doing. It'll flash different colors, reflecting on your success. It was pretty damn cool.
3It's cute - I might get one for lighting my office or my vanity.
4Ooh pretty and modern! But I wonder how much it actually lights up in the dark..
5it's pretty. and would make my dead plants look even better!
6what is the purpose of this? a lamp.. hmm no thank you
7love the play on the word!
