Free iPods for Fledgling Highlanders

Insert your favorite SNL "If it's not Scottish, it's crap!" joke here, but MacMinute is pointing to an article in The Scotsman noting that "Apple, the company that makes the hand-held music and video players, has agreed to give 50 state-of-the-art iPods to Gracemount High School to be used in lessons by pupils and teachers."

Now, this is just warm-and-fuzzy nice Apple news until you read a little bit further into the post, where you are met with this tasty morsel: "Experts say the iPod can be used to record lessons, allowing pupils to study them at home, listen to audio books, keep an up-to-date record of their homework assignments and download video lessons directly from the internet." Used to record lessons and capable of playing video, eh? Sounds like we may start seeing some microphones for the new iPod any day now.

Anybody want to place bets on how soon it will be before we see specialty iPod-cases designed as kilts?
