Great, now my number one “would love to have” gadget has been targetted by Playboy! There are some things you would like to remain porn-free and just plain cool and clean and the Apple iPod is one of those things. I was skipping through a couple blog links I have and saw this story on Fleshbot about Playboy’s newest offering to those fortunate enough to own the new iPod Photos. In Playboy’s words -

Playboy has harnessed this latest digital innovation so some of our sexiest girls next door can be added right to your portable player. Simply download this free image gallery to your desktop from Playboy.com and upload it to your iPod Photo handheld device. If iPod Photo is “a feast for the eyes” on its own, it’s a veritable ocular orgy now that Playboy.com has dialed up the heat a few notches.

Can’t say I am too excited about this development because it somehow taints the whole iPod experience for me a tad. I know this is all a little prudish for me (and there are times when the odd bit of porn can be handy – no pun intended) but, as I said above, some things should be left alone in their clean and cool state and untainted by the porn industry.
