The new addition to Apple’s iPod lineup, announced at a special news conference this Friday, has a total width of 0 nm. “This is a revolutionary step forward in handheld technology,” said industry analyst Jürgen Kofiphilter. “Samsung thinks they’re hot shit with their 6.9mm thin phone and their super-tiny E888, but the new iPod makes their electronics look like clunky behemoths!” The Cantor Dust iPod, which retails for $299, has a capacity dimension of 1.26 and can store an infinite number of songs of zero byte size. Although most Apple enthusiasts have greeted it with great exhuberance, a few reviewers have taken a more reserved tone. “I’d tell you what I thought of it, but since the user interface has fractal geometry I can’t actually interact with it,” Gizmotron magazine columnist Surinder Attapamathak groused. “Plus I suspect I may have sat on it on the way home from the Apple Store.” iPod fans will be able to purchase the new device in September in time for the new school year.
