    Too bad. Everyone knows that would be one sweet product. Besides, everyone would go out and buy a new iPod, yes?

    and then Apple will release a piece of tinfoil tied to a string and all the magpies will line up to chase the shiny things around and get one for themselves.

    They might as well get with radio, the shitty 8-track like sound quality of an iPod would be uber-retro if satellite could capture the sweet tinny sounds of AM.....
