Apple smuggles explosive device onto Tokyo train

August 16, 2010 News 1 Comment

Apple’s iPod is responsible for an eight minute delay of a Tokyo train following a self-destructive malfunction.

The rush hour train had to be held up while a mysterious smell was investigated. The culprit turned out to be a woman’s iPod, which apparently “burst apart.”

This amusing Apple blunder follows Steve “Great Dictator” Jobs being convinced to replace first generate iPod Nanos in Japan due to overheating batteries.
