@CarMoves Yes. Orange is also a phone company, and Eno was obviously joking because Jarvis didn't mean them (or picked a different fruit and didn't recognise the connotation between that and phones, some dunces probably thought Eno was serious and tried to phone the 'Orange Oblique Strategies app' though). I guess that is also tantamount to the advertising that Jarvis was trying to avoid, but Eno can bloody well do what he likes ;-)
