You've Got The Touch, You've Got The Power

Well, it looks like it's time to save the world through well-placed product placement and toy advertising again! Gizmodo is reporting:
According to a leaked script, three of our favorite consumer electronics are going to do a little “transforming in the new Transformers live action movie courtesy of Michael Bay. The Xbox 360 game console, iPod music player, and plasma televisions are going shape-shift to become, well, we donĂ‚’t know what yet. Maybe the Xbox 360 will turn into a PS3, the plasma into an LCD, and an iPod into Steve Jobs.
As long as they are adding new bots, they should really consider allowing the fan base to submit ideas. Not that anyone cares, but here are mine:

Microsoft Evil Live 2006 Professional Edition Bot (Decepticon of course) - Largest Decepticon of them all, bent on world domination through forced software assurance licensing.

Apple iBot - stylish and effective, but the black sheet metal adds $200 to monthly fuel costs.

You've got better? I'm looking forward to the comments...

Mad props for the headline. It lets me recall Ultra Magnus groaning while attempting to open the Matrix.

Secondly, if the movie doesn't have a corp-punk cover of The Touch then it doesn't get my money at all.
