Okay, we’re stretching it a bit with the headline, but we couldn’t resist: Apple has just sent a shut down notice to an online retailer called iPopMyBaby that sells nothing but onesies and diapers featuring Apple’s products: namely, the iPod clickwheel and iPhone homescreen.
iPopMyBaby has been around for years, and while we’re not sure we like the idea of clothing that encourages strangers to touch your baby, their outfits were pretty cute novelty gifts for the expecting Apple fan.
According to the website, Apple “respectfully requested” (re: got their lawyers involved) that iPopMyBaby stop selling their iPod-themed baby clothes, stat. As such, they’ll be shutting down on December 11th, and until then, all of their clothes are 40% off. So if you want to give your baby a clickwheel, now is the time: at least it will let give it a volume control.
