iPod shuffle stickers

You’ve plunked down your hard earned money on an elusive iPod shuffles, but it looks like everyone else’s. What is a stylish technogeek to do?

If you happen to be Japanese and frequent Slashdot Japan, you already know the answer; make your own custom iPod shuffle stickers. After reading ‘The Cult of Mac’ I know that the Japanese have a love affair with Apple products that is rare here in the States, even amongst the hardcore Mac fans. Personalization of gadgets is very important, and these very cool stickers illustrate that nicely (I live for a good pun).

My favorite is the one shown in this post (downloadable here), but there are many more including something that looks like a product warning, and several stickers that will make your shuffle look more like an iPod mini complete with your choice of color and a non-functioning screen.

The best part is that there is no need to go to Japan to get these stickers, all you need is a printer and some sticker paper and you’re good to go.

I wonder if HP is going to come out with iPod shuffle tattoos.

Thanks to Becky S. for bringing these to our attention.
