Dior iPod case
An Anonymous Coward writes "How cool is the iPod? Cool enough that Christian Dior is selling an iPod case. It was designed by Dior Homme's Hedi Slimane, because he didn't know where to store his own iPod. It's black leather."

it's great..... granted there is something unsettling about non-nrrds having such cool toys (when i do not!), but there is also something pretty crazy about designers like that making a case for such a specific product. ignoring the price debate, the ipod is a REALLY rad device. using it as a walkman is just the beginning.... and the more Apple sells, the more of those neat little hard drives Apple buys. more money will go into developing them (hello multiple micro laptop drives). also if Apple keeps tweaking them every 5 months (as it seems is their current revision schedule) these "elite" people will have to sell their "outdated" devices on ebay.... sooner or later i will have one/some. granted it might have "happy birthday princess" laser engraved in the back, but i'll cope.
amyway, my rambling point is that i personally think it's a silly case, but i can't really see anything being a bad situation that leads to more Apple products being sold. there are people that want stuff like this.
yes, i am a stockholder too, but i have less than $1,000 worth of shares and do see this post making them so valuable that i can retire at 30.
