    These are billboards that are currently being displayed by the South Australian government in Adelaide where I live.

    The device is cleary a 1st gen iPad with a slightly modified logo.

    I'd love to know what Apple's legal team thinks of this.

    I think it's about time, Apple would never make a public battle out of it and awareness does need to be raised.

    Good. Maybe this is the first step in what will be an eventual crumbling of freemium and mobile-focused gaming.

    Freemium gaming can't die quick enough. I think it's going to take some legal action along with exposure by the media as to how these games are engineered the same way illegal drugs are. Every time I see the word "addictive" as a positive trait of games I cringe.

    I really hope people are not stupid enough to believe this...

    Apple! Snap out of it and shut this nonsense down! Tell them to use an Android tablet for a negative ad.
