Today Show Host Licks MacBook Air On-Air

by Tim Stevens on January 29, 2008 at 09:49 AM


Gadget licking: It's an odd phenomenon that we first heard of when gamer pin-up Jessica Chobot made a name for herself as the celebrated PSP licker. Since then, gadget licking (or GL) has became a bit of an underground trend, with Olivia Munn licking an Apple TV on G4TV and some dude licking his iPhone. However, it certainly didn't seem like a mainstream phenomenon -- until 'Today Show' host Meredith Viera expressed her love for the MacBook Air by giving it a big 'ol lick on-air.

The 'Today Show' crew was giving a review of the product and predictably oohing and aaahing over the aesthetics while glossing over the negatives of the thing. But, honestly, that's what most people will do when they first get their hands on one, so we can't say we blame them. Just please, people, keep it decent if you happen to see one of these sitting on a shelf at your local Apple Store.
