Bwah! More hand grenades than horseshoes, I think. ^^ I heard about it yesterday and read it today - oh, I think I'll have something to say about it, I'll just let it ferment a little bit. :D

Yeah, I've seen your iPod mini you loser. I just ditched my iPod femto for the iPod atto. Sadly, it looks like the iPod zepto will be the last in line. It only exists in an observable state when you're not looking at it.
