I heard that they were the first test-audience Apple used to test their new product, the IRope. Apple designed it to go around their user's necks. The other end of the IRope is designed to attach to a proprietary cryptographic dongle to work called the Lynch-Key. Apple says it's like a lynch-pin because it's critical to the function the IRope.

Apple never did hear back from the test-audience. -I think this product will be a real winner!
