iMonkey - the next frontier

It was a smallish news item this week that caught my eye. It seems certain Orangutans in Florida are being provided with ipads to communicate with their masters - the humans. Now I am not sure if Apple is behind this stunt but it would mean that they are definitely thinking outside the box (or skulls - human anyway). With most of the homo sapiens market now sporting an idevice perhaps its time to look at alternate markets. Alien visits are shrouded in secrecy so that is out of scope for now. Besides who knows what kind of goobledegook language those weirdos use if any. We could not sell them anything. So the next best thing. Find a species with somewhat similar intelligence or lack thereof as the sapiens. Enter the monkeys. I mean there are already large American corporations dedicated to the welfare of non humans in the form of Petco and Petsmart and the like but this would take the bar and set it higher. An entirely new line of devices that suits the taste of other mammals. There is no end to where this concept can go. Now the drug companies that worried about our simian cousins transporting AIDS and other epidemics to humans could also start worrying about software viruses that one day a simian could infect into the World Wide Web. Perhaps Symantec and Genentech could do a combo drug that can be beamed into monkey brains by wifi and make lots of money. This is likely to get the global economy out of the doldrums soon. Hurray!
