They could have capitalized on the parody and contacted the producers of the show with an offer to have a high-level exec from Apple appear on the show to give Ellen "free iPhone lessons" and even offered free iPhones or iPads for her to hand out to the studio audience. Considering Apple's ad budget, that would have been dirt cheap advertising for them with extremely high ROI.
That would have been brilliant.

What's kinda silly about this is that the day before or so on her show she gave an iTouch to everyone in the audience (or possibly during the same episode....it all runs together). So it's clear she's not really dissing on Apple because she doesn't like their products. I saw her spoof ad when it first aired and totally thought she was making fun of herself and everyone who fat fingers all the new technology.

This and everything else Apple/Job has been doing lately really is quite ridiculous.
Wow. She totally sounds like an Apple fan.

Although maybe less so now.
