But Apple made an MP3 player that kills people.

IPODS can kill people who use cardiac implantable pacemakers by interfering with the electromagnetic equipment monitoring the heart, according to a report on Reuters.


A study presented by a 17-year-old high school student Jay Thaker to a meeting of heart specialists looked at the effect of Ipods on 100 patients, whose mean age was 77, outfitted with pacemakers.

An Ipod threw out enough electrical interference was detected half of the time when it was held two inches from the patient's chest for five to 10 seconds.
In some cases, the Ipods caused interference when held 18 inches from the chest and caused telemetry equipment caused the device to misread the heart's pacing and in one case caused the pacemaker to stop functioning altogether.


Uh oh.

This is only so they can bring out apple own brand pacemakers, with built in ipods.
 
I knew there was a reason not to jump on the iPod bandwagon. DEATH.
 
Only if you have a pacemaker. I wonder what happened to the person whose device stopped working, and how a 17 year old managed to do the research.
 
I really don't think it would be much of a firmware upgrade to include an iPace function, where the player steps in and takes over for the faulty pacemaker.

Plus, Al-Qaeda uses iPhones now.

That's Abdul Salam Zaeef, by the way.
 
Steve Jobs? MORE LIKE STEVE BLOBS.

That's too hot and sexy to be anywhere near if you have a pacemaker anyway. They got what they deserved.
