Ellen apologizes to Apple for making the iPhone look hard to use

Apple – the fun loving and creative company over the past couple weeks have been on a rampage. Breaking into Gizmodo’s blogger Chen’s house over the next-gen iPhone leak and now taking on Ellen. The other day comedian Ellen created her own iPhone commercial (probably with a MacBook Pro) but the higher ups at Apple were not too pleased… Check out the video below:

  1. God, Apple is such a cry-baby. Seriously, MS takes criticism better, hands down!

  2. I think Apple has the right to be – her commercial implied that it was hard to use – rather than hard for her to use. That’s her mistake. I think it’s a very intuitive gadget.
    This is where any publicity wasn’t good publicity – an apology should fix it – so Apple was right to ask for one.

  3. Ellen sucks, period. She adopts dogs then gets bored of them and tries to give them away. She’s a terrible person.

  4. I was actually considering getting an iPhone. But with Apple’s attitute with Flash, and this and now the FTC going after Apple.

    No thanks. They’ve lost my respect.

  7. @ Ann:

    So why does that give Apple the right to make fun of Windows in what created the whole Mac vs PC era when Windows Vista was out. Granted Windows Vista was terrible, but did you hear Microsoft complaining and throwing fits because Apple made fun of them. She’s a comedian and makes comedy. She didn’t mean anything by it, and then you talk about publicity. Seriously, now that Oprah will bee leaving soon, anything that Ellen will say or put together is probably the best publicity to grab attention for a certain product during the afternoon hours.

  13. This is incredible. Apple has control over Ellen. First they raid someones house illegally and now they force Ellen to say sorry on national TV. I am so glad people Jailbreak the hell out of Apple. Because this is way too far. Whats next.? people getting jailed for using their devices in the night time.? Thank God I don’t own a MAC.

    Apple’s attitute with Flash, Then illegally raiding someones home and now this and now the FTC going after Apple.
    I hope the FTC digs a huge grave for Apple. – I HATE APPLE AND WISH THEY DIED AND THEIR STOCKS CRUMBLES.

  14. @Ann Yup, Microsoft got so butthurt when Apple was making fun of them right?

    Apple FANBOYS/GIRLS are the MOST annoying people, they’ll protect Apple like it’s their own child.

  15. Apple is like my grandmother. She used to be fun and kind of cool. Now she’s cranky, controlling, and generally a drag to be around. I am very excited that my AT&T contract is about to expire. Hello Droid.
