More from the you-couldn’t-make-it-up department

Apple has just released a tiny, cheap iPod called, if you please, “iPod shuffle”.

The fine print on the Apple Store page describing this little gem includes the injunction: “Do not eat iPod shuffle”.

A kind reader has emailed to point out that this may be a rare example of corporate lawyers displaying a sense of humour, in that some of the publicity material for the Shuffle likened its size to that of a couple of strips of chewing gum!
