iPod socks: useful or useless? The debate rages on.

Personally, I'd use them. I don't need to talk my ipod out exept to turn it off because I have soooo many different playlists. P.S. I wouldn't mind having an actual pair of socks with the apple logo.

Juan - eggs-actly! I wanted them to be real socks, too. What is up with the extreme lack of official Apple apparel, anyway? This is one of the few companies I would actually support by wearing a logo. So the official lunchtime poll shows that the iPod socks may be a potentially huge hit with Thai women, and with people who are not boring old farts. Anybody else actually thinking of buying some? Or any Thai women or boring old farts who feel they've been misrepresented? And for those who bought or will buy - is it a gag for the novelty, or will you actually use the things for their intended purpose? Inquiring minds want to know! :)

I thought they were real socks and was ready to buy some for my daughter who would get a real kick out of having them but who cares about using them for your iPod - we have cases for our iPods. They should be real socks that sell at the Apple stores and retailers. Everybody would buy some for their favorite Mac geek for the holidays.

I could see these doing well in Thailand (well, for people in Thailand with the baht enough to buy an iPod). Almost every woman in Thailand with a mobile phone has a little cartoony sock that she slips it in before poping it into her purse. Keeps it from getting scratched.

If you don't like the iPod socks, then don't buy them. I think they are a wonderful idea; original and fun - that's what Apple is all about. Anybody calling them 'stupid' or 'boring' is clearly a boring old fart.
