Ironic: Apple’s New Tiny Keyboard Ships in a Ginourmous Box
lifeclever.com — It’s no surprise that Apple ’s new sexy keyboard packs a lot of eye candy into a waifish body. Apple just loves sleek, minimal design. So why does the keyboard ship in a box a billion times its size?

- chanpory, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Nope that's the real box it came in. Guess you were just lucky to get a small box.

- chanpory, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Other people are saying they got theirs in a slim box too, so it must have just been random we got a huge box. Amazon does similar things with their books sometimes. Sometimes its in a tiny box, other times its ridiculously huge.
- chanpory, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Nope, that's the real box it came in.
- titanicfan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1i belive it, but apple's display packaging should NEVER be used for shipping, but they do that with there servers
- JGaskin, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0I can verify that that's the box it came in, I signed for it at the office. This is a total waste of resources.
(That's me in one of the photos on the lifeclever site) - ncaauwe, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I got mine in a box that big too, and wondered why they couldn't have just shipped it in the small box. It was the same way they shipped me the old keyboard earlier this year, which happened to be about a week after Apple became a Green company. In fact, I was going to post my own pictures soon, looks like you beat me to it =)
- 10goto10, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Maybe the rest of the box held all the hot air that comes with each Apple product.
- cwcheang, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Maybe Apple saw this video:
