Achtung, Baby

hanks to the MPW* and MPD*, I'm now the proud owner of an o-fish-ul U2 Special Edition Apple iPod, in all its resplendent ebony glory. I walk down the street with it clutched firmly in my hand, enjoying the envy I'm quite sure those around me must be feeling. (After all, it is an o-fish-ul U2 Special Edition Apple iPod.)
Verdict, after about a month of use: I love it. Go get one. (If you don't want to plunk down $300+, try the new iPod shuffle those fun folks at Apple have just released.) It sounds great, it holds a bazillion songs, and, well, it's an o-fish-ul U2 Special Edition Apple iPod. The scroll wheel is a thing of beauty: something so intuitively elegant you wish the folks at Apple designed home appliances and power tools. (Strike that: let's keep 'em busy on the tech gadgets.)
So, suffice to say: I'm a gushing fanboy. I only have one quibble. Well, maybe two. The first is, the o-fish-ul, midnight black U2 Special Edition iPod comes with...um, the same white headphones as every other iPod. Matched black earphones--especially on a special edition product--really would have been better from a design standpoint, methinks.
Second, the black surface of the iPod tends to show marks; I should probably invest in a case of some kind to keep my iPod in shiny new condition, but come on, I do want folks to see it's an o-fish-ul U2 Special Edition Apple iPod.
Or have I said that already?
