Geeks and Chicks Alert!
Ashlee Vance has fun in The Register with Anna K sends Amazon CEO into shock:
Amazon.com CEO Jeff Bezos appeared to enter "sexpot shock" while joining tennis star Anna Kournikova for the Friday opening of the NASDAQ exchange.

Mouth wide-open and almost cross-eyed, Bezos looked like a teenage boy making his first journey into the raunchy section of a movie store. Bezos and Anna were teaming up to promote the “Anna Kournikova Multiway Sports Bra." The product, designed by Shock Absorber, will be sold to U.S. customers via Amazon.com only.

Who could blame Bezos for his excitement? Anna may struggle on the tennis court but her form in front of the camera is beyond compare.

She may not need too many of the sports bras, however. Rumor has it Anna is going to hang up her racket due to lingering injuries. She has yet to win a tournament on the pro-tour.
Obligatory Anna snaps by following the links in the article and also here.
