I was listening to Buzz Out Loud and MacBreak Weekly last week and they were talking about the new Hide-A-Pod. It turns out to be a gag, but what a great gag it is. The idea is that they gut brown Zunes so they can be used as anti-theft cases for iPods. What a riot! The best line I have read so far in the “Testimonials” is as such:

“And everyone seems to steer clear of what appears to be a feces-stained scientific calculator.”

What a hoot! Its funny, too, because Microsoft has announced today that they have now sold 1.2 million of the pocket bricks, 200,000 more than they projected at this point. Meanwhile, Apple’s market share just keeps climbing and they now tie for 3rd place with Gateway in PC sales behind Dell and HP.
