-v, --verbose
This option increases the amount of information you are given
when reading a post. By default, first posts are cryptic and
force readers to click on random URLs. A single -v will
give you information about what the heck the first poster
really meant and a brief summary at the end. Two -v flags will give
you information on what was skipped (intentionally or not) by the
second poster and slightly more information at the end (than you
probably wanted to know). More than two -v flags should only be
used if you are debugging your browser or are a glutton for punishment.
I don't know about anyone else but I thought it was a sort of violation. Poor iPod Shuffle being ripped apart with industrial tools; made me feel sorry for the thing. What was wrong with some jewellers screwdrivers and a scalpel? I'm sure it wasn't put together with a 6lb lump hammer...
1) spend $99+tax on iPod shuffle
2) destroy it completely to show that not much is new inside
3) take pictures and post them on the web
4) get minor apple slashdotted
5) withold geeky information from the descriptions and piss people off
6) ???
7) profit?
Well done on styling from an apple site.

Brought to your by the select the text before you read it department.
Anybody who risks voiding their warranty taking apart an iPod should really take the time to set white balance, if possible, so we don't end up looking at yellow versions of what I'm sure is a brilliant white object.
That said, I really appreciate people taking the time pulling this stuff apart. Bravo.

Ok.. Ok.. so they got the wrapper off. Big deal..
What we wanna know: HOW DOES IT TASTE?!?
So you're saying that Apple's doing nothing new, and your cure for that is for them to make a...Newton?
Sounds workable.
Considering that's how previous iPods worked, plus every CD player I've ever bought...I'd say so.
