"Terrorists planned to use iPod as detonator"

Then, it sounds like they were going to try and detonate Lucozade. Suddenly we're not scared to fly today. Ray Mears could take down an aeroplane using a plastic fork (and from the ground), anyway.

Report: Terrorists planned to use iPod as detonator

WHY THIS PLAN WOULD'VE FAILED:
  • Because the battery would've gone flat! Ha ha ha!

  • You've only got a FireWire cable and bombs are USB! Ha ha ha!

    o Because the Digital Rights Management on songs bought from the iTunes music store wouldn't work on the modified iPod detonator

    * because the person next to you would get so annoyed with the tinny noise on your ipod they would lure you into the toilet and gut you with a shiv made form a melted toothbrush BEFORE you could stick it in your lucozade and blow up a japanese tourist.

    im not funny. except to look at.

    God knows where they got the info that it would be an iPod, and not just any other mp3 player, mobile phone or other generic electronic gadget. iPod isn't a generic term for MP3 player (unlike Hoover for, erm, hoovers).

    Lazy journalists... But then the iPod battery/FireWire jokes wouldn't have worked!

    Ray Mears gags.... played.

    Although a plastic fork? come on.

    It'd be a bow constructed from twine gathered from willow bark and arrow extracted from the spine of a local, recently deceased, oap.

    Not that I'm implying Ray would kill OAPs for offensive weapons, but they do fall over...eh...into pits accidentally dug into the pavement outside the bingo, cleverly disguised as a pound shop.

    Fork?

    HE'd at least need a Spork, or one of those wooden forkes you get with fish and chips

    John, it nearly is a generic term for MP3 players for morons.

    At least the iPod would be good for something. Then again, with Apple losing more and more money, they had to write something good on their iPod site, this was probably the best they could do.

    Those crazy terrorists have just blown their cover - from now one we don't need to search anyone not wearing those ridiculous Levi's.

    Fools!
