New iPod shuffle accessories from DLO
Digital Lifestyle Outfitters (DLO), the folks who brought us the TransPod, today introduced the DLO Cool Caps 5-Pack Replacement Caps & Lanyards for the iPod shuffle.
For $30, you get five colored caps and adjustable lanyards - a feature sorely lacking form
the iPod shuffle out of the box - that will make your iPod shuffle stand out in a crowd without covering it up.
As Jeff Grady, CEO of DLO points out, aside from being just plain fun, the Cool Caps serve a very practical purpose… if
you have more than one shuffle in the house, the different colored caps will help you tell them apart. Damn. I wish I’d
thought of that before taking a Sharpie to mine.
The Cool Caps are available immediately at your local Best Buy and online at
everythingiPod.com.
I also noticed the
DLO Flip Clip for iPod shuffle and the
DLO Jam Caps for iPod shuffle which are equally fun, fashionable and useful variations on a theme. Maybe those
aren’t quite as new? But I don’t really get out much so forgive me if that’s old news.
If you consider me a trendsetter (and who doesn’t?) you might be interested to know that I am personally buying a
5-pack of Cool Caps and they will actually be the first iPod shuffle accessory I am spending my own hard-earned
cash on.

$30? Plus shipping? Mercy, DLO is aiming for a mighty hefty profit margin, no?
"Mix-and-match different caps and lanyards for endless color combinations"
Sounds like someone's straining for a feature set. ;)
