Dubai is a crazy place but this is near the top of the absurd list:

Man, this is really silly. It won't be open until 2009. And what will an ipod look like then? I'll just about guarantee it will not look like it does now. They will be stuck with an anique building.

Worthless without pics.

I can't find a picture, but this is the city that wanted to build a Chess City with 32 buildings in the shape of a black/white chess set. Insanity.

Omniyat Properties' latest venture is to build a home called the iPad. Constructed in the shape of an iPod, apartments inside this building will not just have the ability to rotate, but at the click of a button can even change colour. Best of all, the building will be directly linked to a number of cameras across the world, which means that you can change the view in your living room from Dubai to a live feed from Sydney Harbour at the click of a button. Pure genius.

Actually that sounds freakin' cool.

I'd visit it.®

be kinda funny if Apple waited until the building was almost done, then made 'em take it down.

Maybe Apple will open up an Apple Store in the new building?
