Apple Patents In-OS Advertising

How would you feel if you're using your electronic device, say a PDA, laptop, or even an internet capable media player and all of a sudden you're forced to watch an advertisement? Apple patented such an idea which involves locking the system, playing an advertisement, and even requires some input like pressing a continue button. Whether or not Apple wants to use the patent, it would certainly suck if this idea were implemented.

On a side note didn't the Gizmondo do this?
