The Returned Service League has set up a web site where you can for $2 purchase a poppy wallpaper for your mobile (Or choose from a a Last Post ringtone and other memorabilia). For every donation, RSL place another virtual poppy on their "Wall of Remembrance".
According to Wikipedia, the poppy's significance to Remembrance Day is a result of Canadian military physician John McCrae's poem 'In Flanders Fields'. The poppy emblem was chosen because of the poppies that bloomed across some of the worst battlefields of Flanders in World War I, their red colour an appropriate symbol for the bloodshed of trench warfare.
However the poppy's close association with Armistice Day in Britain and the Commonwealth originated in the US and was brought to England by a French woman, according to Wikipedia.
