According to “an individual close to Apple” by way of MacRumors, a man who had bought an iPad 2 shortly after launch returned it to the store. The Apple Store team charged with troubleshooting customer complaints found a Post-It note on the iPad that said “Wife said no.”

Eventually, the story made its way up to two VPs at Apple: They sent the man a free iPad 2 with a Post-It note on it that said “Apple said yes.”

Cue 500 Apple fans reading this story and attempting to try it on their iPad 2s/iPhones/17″ MacBook Pros and being very sad when it doesn’t work out. Good for that guy, though.
