I think their plan is to give away a free "iphone lite" device with this in the future.... with this in there the ads would pay for it and iphones would probably get in lots of more hands and their evil empire can go on..
They had an epic fail.

The device should administer electric shocks according to a protocol the user signs when getting it from the vendor. Shocks can be given when the user forgets to push a button, or when he/she forgets the name of the brand which sponsored the chosen application, or when not using the device for a given time.
Also, we are considering the use of operative conditioning, i.e. presenting image patterns that the user is conditioned to (with prize and punishment). Selected patterns could result in gratification, other in non lethal harm (pain, diarrhoea and the so).

Excellent, here's hoping they are granted the patent so we are spared that cr@p on other platforms :-)

Seriously, you can't make a list like that and forget about Sony. C'mon! Sony, the company that basically owns RIAA, fought MP3 for two decades, said trojan root kits on their CDs wasn't a problem because their customers doesn't know what a root kit is, and is the evil mastermind behind patents like
1) blu-ray player call home
2) blu-ray player check disk DRM licence
3) if DRM licence not good;
4) blu-ray player commit suicide,
5) you have to go to an authorized Sony store to have the player unlocked (and the suspicious disk released)...
If they implement that patent, buying a movie on eBay or the local corner shop, not to mention rentals, will be a gamble that may or may kill your $400 blu-ray player if there's something wrong with the DRM licence.
Sony needs to be on the list.

Maybe they are cooking some kind of ad-subsidized IPTV model for the Apple TV. They could be sure that people follows the ads (or brainwash you 
)

Maybe Microsoft will beat Apple with an ad-laden Zune2. It stops playing if you don't listen to an ad and miss the dial-in, pay-attention code.
How about Coke machines in high school?
Where's the music on MTV?
What happened to FM radio?
My head is about to explode.
