Mine are programmed to launch either Pandora or iTunes when placed on the pad, and close the app when taken off. It's convenient for when I don't want to turn my monitor on to just start playing music.]]>May 19th 2009 7:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/19/violet-starts-shipping-nano-ztags-in-the-us/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/19/violet-starts-shipping-nano-ztags-in-the-us/May 19th 2009 4:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/19/violet-starts-shipping-nano-ztags-in-the-us/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/19/violet-starts-shipping-nano-ztags-in-the-us/

I'm still not sold on the long-term pointfulness (even assuming they work perfectly), but was obviously curious enough to click through.
