Do not eat iPod shuffle?

I would not believe this if I did not see it for myself. I just happened to see this. If you go to the Apple website to the new iPod Shuffle page, near the bottom it actually says "Do not eat iPod shuffle".

Maybe it's just a marketing plog so that people like me will write about it.

Music capacity is based on 4 minutes per song and 128Kbps AAC encoding.
Do not eat iPod shuffle.
Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See www.apple.com/batteries for more information.
Some computers require either the optional iPod shuffle Dock or a USB cable extender (sold separately).

Build Your Own Lego Computer Case

I'm getting around to finishing an original article to place here, but in the meantime:

An article from Slashdot:

PuppiesOnAcid writes "Here is what comes about when you cross a case modder and an AFOL (Adult Fan of Legos). It would be interesting to see how he got everything mounted in there since there don't appear to be any screw holes." Not just a Lego shell around a case, he's used the Legos to support everything. Impressive.

The Apple Ipod is Over

It is my opinion that Apple Ipod's day is over. Why? you ask. Well there are a few simple reasons.

1. The Trendy factor always wears off fast.
The Ipod has already been trendy for quite a long time, this can not last much longer.

2. The Ipod is too limited.
Of course they now have come out with the Ipod Photo, but come on Apple, what use is that really? Why didn't they add video with the color screen? People will soon want more than just the ability to play mp3s.

I would say around mid or later part of the year people will be awing over portable media players instead.
