P. Diddy sports diamond encrusted iPod at VMA after-party (images)
Coinciding with the release of Hewlett Packard’s iPod digital music player, rap recording artist P.Diddy (aka Puff Daddy, Puffy, Sean "Puffy" Combs) reportedly arrived at his MTV Video Music Awards after-party with a customized 120 diamond Apple iPod from HP. Attendees to the party also each receive a new HP iPod, although without the diamonds.
HP was a major sponsor of the awards event and used it to launch their massive consumer-electronics ad campaign, which included its HP-branded iPod music player. Apple Computer also aired a new iPod television spot during the awards, dubbed "Stereo Rock." The ad, which made its debut in CEO Steve Jobs' WWDC 2004 Keynote earlier this summer, features the company's black silhouette dancers and "Walkie Talkie Man" by Steriogram.

Will be a what? A twit? A twat (not sure what that's supposed to mean)? A twot, twut, twet, twyt? Or, when you say TW*T, is this some acronym, like TWFT, "totally wicked f-ing thespian"?

He means twat, and it's not a polite word in the British idiom.
The images don't make sense to me at all. Maybe we need a close-up of the screen and controls cause right now it just looks like a black box with jewels on it.
That, thing is cool, if only I had one with an apple. But it would be even cooler if you had blue led's behind the diamonds, hmmm, glowing diamonds.
Funny
