This is slightly off-topic. But bow do they think they are going to sell any of their "1.5GB" players for $299.99 when you can get a 10GB iPod for the same price?
If you don't need a certain feature of the kernel, then why would you compile it in. One of the great things about Linux and Open source is that you can maximize functionality (adding new features) without making the kernel so big (don't compile in what you don't need). Using modules can reduce the size of your kernel, too.
