Having said this, I find the image on the left even more offensive.]]>Apr 25th 2007 2:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/
If anyone claims to use it for any serious purpose other than smashing it to bits, they're insane.]]>Apr 25th 2007 6:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/Apr 25th 2007 2:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/Apr 25th 2007 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/Apr 25th 2007 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/Apr 25th 2007 3:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/25/apples-ipod-shuffle-the-next-great-appetizer/But the only time the two mingle is when I'm eating at my favorite Teriyaki restaurant and absolutely cannot deal with the Leeza Gibbons-sponsored "warm, soothing, soft rock hits of the 70's, 80's and 90's" complete with the sugary letters of inspiration from frequent listeners that the restaurant owners play.

I seriously doubt the "soft sounds of sea breezes and waves" delivered through Fat Duck's iPod shuffles will be able to drown out the unpleasant sounds of patrons chewing and swallowing their own food. Using earbuds while eating only amplifies those sounds. Can you imagine trying to get through a piece of Calimari with what looks like protein shake backwash on your plate paired with the sounds of the sea muffled my your own chewing?
