Sleeves for nanos, too

Not only does the iPod nano now rock the Doom kasbah, but Apple has started shoving them in little white soft fabric sleeves, just like those included with the 5G iPods.

When I called Steve Jobs about this earlier today, Steve said,* "Every time I shoved the little sucker in my jeans, it kept coming out with more and more scratches! And this was stone-washed, too! So I called up Ives and said, 'Ivy, baby. We gotta sleeve the little ones too!'"

*Note: This a total fabrication and lie. No such conversation ever occurred.
