Buzzy:

There are lots of options available to Apple - and other - makers. I've got equipment that can take a LiIon pack, a NiMH pack or AA batteries (primary or secondary). You can swap the battery packs to suit: electronically it's not difficult, and while it takes a little cleverness on the physical design that's what designers are paid for, isn't it?

I don't approve of what the Neistat brothers did, especially leaving the video up 'as a record of our experience' - and even getting that out of them took time, I believe. But there's only so many bases I can touch on in one article. As for flyposting and guerilla campaigns - they've been with us since Roman times, and I'm anarchist enough to think we can survive a bit of botty-baring.
