Apple iSight in Vanilla Sky movie?

I'm watching Vanilla Sky and noticed that Tom Cruise has a Cinima Display and on top of it looks like the iSight. This movie came out a few years ago so I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

No I hadnt noticed that.. Ill have to see that one again. I did just see "Under the Tuscan Sun" My fiance and I won tickets to a sneak preview of the movie and she had an old iBook.. which of course got me excited :) Good movie by the way.. quite touching for those who like touching movies.. if you don't.. then I wouldnt go if I was you.. It was very VERY good for those of us who like "chick flicks" :)

Speaking of Macs in movies. How about the guy who won the lottery in Final Destination 2 draging home an iMac. And the hot chick surfing the web on her Powerbook (or iBook). I know I've seen another movie with Macs in it but I can't think of it right now.

This couldn't have been an iSight in Vanilla Sky though. The movie has been out way too long. I bet the directors just made up a cool gadget that looked like a camera - Steve Jobs saw it and a lightbulb went off in his head. When's the **** 2-button mouse lightbulb going to light up! The heck with wireless, I want more buttons! My Logitch MX 700 works great.

I don't have a problem with the one button. There is alway a key board solution for the other mouse buttons if needed. I just see that one button is Apple. Just like the three point star logo is MBZ. :)

I know logos don't count, but a three button mouse for me is a PC mouse. thats all.

Then third thought, I am cheap. So I work with mouse that came with the Apple hardware. I thought about buying a three mouse for my powerbook, but decide to use the built in track pad. :) I use the money on additonal memory.
