I can't help but notice that almost everything here is ... well .. pink. Is that the only colour manufacturers think women like? Or is that actually the only colour women like? Or maybe it was a deliberate decision to find the pinkest, shiniest, most frivolous tech objects. O__________________O

I think the stuff's pink, because when hunting for 'girl stuff' without feeling as a girl, you can only identify stuff that screams 'not boy stuff at all' as being girl stuff ; not that there isn't being manufactured anything for females, that isn't pink.

Are they kidding? PINK?? Geek stuff is the last "bastion of hope" for women trying to escape the stupid stereotype that "cute little purple/pink"powder blue" lines on sneakers are "cute" and that we all should wear "light colors" and .... ohh this is so bad.

The model looks awful with those colors. What are they THINKING? (They aren't or they'd have asked the opinion of a few more women before agreeing to market this at all!)

Not all girls like pink OR light green/blue/any other "bright shiny light" colors, it's not all in the colors sometimes, and associating women to "bright/pastel/toned-down colors" is ridiculous.
