A sign of things to come

[nuch_ss396]

I came across a Christmas catalog that featured a winter
coat with a most unusual feature. It appears that the
left sleeve has outer controls built in for your Ipod. These
controls handle volume, play selection, etc... The Ipod
goes in an inner pocket, and the earphones are routed
through a channel of sorts so the wire doesn't get snagged
on anything.

I expect we will see more and more of this as time goes by.

Personally, this bothers me a little. How many times do you
see younger kids with their MP3 player earphones "implanted"
in their ears? I recently almost ran down a kid in Philly because
he was listening to "his tunes" and not paying attention to
the traffic flow.
