Our Obession with Smaller and Smaller iPods

It's crazy enough that the last iPod shuffle was about the size of a quarter, but now according to this article on the NY Times Apple has unveiled a new iPod shuffle which will be half the size of the original shuffle, which will make it look like a sleek aluminum tie clip. It is incredible that something so small can hold about 1,000 songs. It is so tiny that the remote control is on the earbud cord and has 3 clickable spots on it - 2 spots for volume control and a center button that serves as a play/pause button. I'm excited to see how small the iPod after this one will be!
