	<htmltext>At first glance it's evil, but it depends on how it's used. As little as I use a cellphone, it might be worth watching an ad before every call if the iPhone only cost me $5. I'm sure it could be set up so that a 911 would bypass the ads. This might also be acceptable for a low cost macnetbook that cost you $25 and offers free access but makes you watch an ad every 15 minutes while you're answering your email.</htmltext>

</p><p> <i>[0029]The following notes apply to one or more implementations described herein: The implementation of advertisement presentation in an operating system (OPS) can require an analysis of the level of security required from the perspective of the manufacturer or provider of the computer system. <b>For example, a system architecture can be designed (or modified) to supply advertisement presentation, in a way that ensures or seeks to ensure that a user does not bypass the presentation and thereby renders it fully or partially ineffective.</b> A person implementing OPS-based advertising can analyze a hardware structure and identify one or more points (e.g., parts and subparts) therein to which the advertisement presentation should be tied, both for purposes of facilitating the presentation and to provide the above-mentioned resistance against user actions. For example, hardware points can be identified and controlled accordingly, <b>so that the advertisement presentation can in effect "take over the system" in relevant aspects for a limited time.</b> </i>


</p><p> <i>[0030]<b>In implementations where the OPS-based advertising is provided using executable code in the system, it can be necessary or desirable to protect that code from being removed, rendered inoperative, bypassed or manipulated.</b> As another example, the system can provide constant or repeated monitoring of whether the system presents the advertisement(s) as scheduled. If non-presentation is detected, the system can invoke one or more enforcement routines to seek compliance with the advertisement presentation schedule. <b>Such enforcement routines can include, but are not limited to, disabling the system in whole or in part, reporting the issue to a responsible party, invoking an alternative way of presenting the advertisement (such as by audio when visual presentation is impeded), or by registering the non-compliance in a log that can later be used in a follow-up process.</b> In some implementations, an enforcement routine is implemented in a different part of the system (e.g., in a different software and/or other system component) than the OPS-based advertising feature it is designed to monitor. For example, an operating system can have a windows server that maintains windows and controls their presentation on a display screen, and the windows server in such an implementation can be configured or modified to provide for OPS-based advertising. As another example, when the advertising is visually presented in a user interface the system can be designed to not allow anything to be presented over that interface, or to prevent anything from being drawn on top of it.</i>

	<htmltext>What I'm guessing is that Apple are perhaps going to introduce a new version of Mac OS X (either full version or trimmed for iPhone/iPod Touch/"iTablet," or perhaps both) that includes advertising if you get it for free (or at a reduced price), and no advertising at full price.  The advertising, in other words, will subsidize the cost of Apple's R&amp;D for future operating systems (and/or hardware).  Just a thought--it seems a logical money-making and "best-of-both-worlds" step to me.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I guess it all depends on what "reward" you are receiving for watching the add.

If it comes with free content, or free bandwidth or something I can see it.  I would want to be able to opt out tho, and pay for what I get, rather than listen to a message.

If I bought an Iphone and had to pay attention to adds, well, my blackberry is working just fine.

What concerns me is that the ToS could change, so I buy something, and then they start pushing adds down my throat afterwards.

This is why I own a PVR.</htmltext>
