1.5 Who's using an Aero

Subject: Aero sighting (for section 1.5 of the FAQ)

I just noticed the "Who's using an Aero" section of the Aero FAQ and
thought I would add my NZ$0.02:

There was an ad on NZ television (some time ago now) for the online yellow
pages; it featured what looked like a copy of the yellow pages with a
laptop inside that looked suspiciously like an Aero.  There was a nice
closeup of the purple powerbutton too.

Cheers

There is a kind of computer cart sold at Wal-Mart that has a Contura
Aero sitting on it on the little picture of it on the box.

Subject: Media appearances of Aero

I noticed that one of the characters of Fox's "Living Single" show (the
character played by Queen Latifah) uses an Aero. I think this is my
first television sighting (other than the Aero commercials) of our
little friend, but i don't watch much t.v. outside of the Simpsons...

Has the Aero appeared in any movies or other t.v. shows?

It's hardly Hollywood, but I have noticed that the facilities engineers
use Aeros in the modern office building where I work.  It looks like they
plug them into something to take environmental readings (office air
quality, humidity, temperature).
