Oprah stands to make a bundle off her e-magazine. It's no wonder the iPad was her ultimate favorite thing.
The show's opening was an absolutely disgusting display of gluttony. Thank goodness her show doesn't air at Foxconn.
The taxes will be a sizable chunk of the purchase price. Does the Big O cover those costs, too?
Depends, some of the things she just buys, some things are donated, VW is not only donating the 275 2011 Beetles they are paying all taxes and 'charges' on them, so they really are 'free' to the audience members, unlike a game show where you win a new car and it costs you $5,000 up front to get it.
"From our very first moment together, I knew it had stolen my heart," Winfrey told her audience, before she "cued the angels" and an iPad was lowered from the ceiling sporting angel's wings. The television host pranced around the device as audience members screamed with excitement.
A bit OTT but I'm prancing...

Winfrey's promotion of the iPad comes just days after a digital version of her publication, O, The Oprah Magazine, became available on the iPad (iTunes link). The $3.99 software is billed as a "taste of the December issue," and includes an animated cover with Winfrey personally unveiling the issue.
Of course not. However, 'Think Different' now would apply to another company, no?
Why refer to an advertising campaign that's been over for ten years? Apple's commercial message is changing constantly.
More to the point, it does become more difficult to maintain a hip image as a product becomes culturally mainstream. All this tells us is that Apple will need to continually recalibrate their message. Which they are already doing. Which is why Albert Einstein is no longer in the picture.

Oprah has a reality distortion field that even Steve Jobs would be jealous of! I don't recall anyone crying at MacWorld when he unveiled the iPhone.
They are stupid, but you're missing the point. They are happy because everything she mentions on these shows they get one free. Unlike MacWorld.

Could the iPad be the Elmo or is it the Cabbage Patch Doll of this xmas?
The Kinect looks to be a tour de force this year, too.
It's surprising how influential she is towards soccer moms.
She can make #1 NY Times best selling authors out of frauds, think of what she will do for something that actually works and has use.

Taxes on a gift if valued more than $500. She probably already paid the sales tax.
Yes, right now it's evil. Don't you read the memo?
You're confused. That's Google.
Is that why you used Apple's products?
Of course not. However, 'Think Different' now would apply to another company, no?
BTW, there is nothing wrong with not being cool, or different, or unique. Popularity doesn't necessarily mean mediocre... at least, not always.

Oh you had to go and spoil it didn't you

I thought her favorite thing ever was Ben and Jerry's.
There's certainly a resemblance....
