Well this might seem usless, but I still think that it’s kind of cool to just know. I’m a little suprised that silvers the top one, but I’ve always been partial to blue my self.

I’m not surprised the silver one is in the lead—I am DEFINITELY not surprised that the gold one is last since that is, by far, the ugliest color out of the lot. Who knows, gold may be popular with our beloved hip-hop artists.

interestingly, RailHeadDesign.com reported this yesterday morning (18 hours or so before MacMinute) and they should have credited Maury (the guy that runs RailHeadDesign.com).

Woah woah woah.. hang on just a second.

Here’s RHD’s list:
1. iPod Mini Silver: Amazon sales rank at 88
2. iPod Mini Blue: Amazon sales rank at 239
3. iPod Mini Green: Amazon sales rank at 617
4. iPod Mini Gold: Amazon sales rank at 1399
5. iPod Mini Pink: Amazon sales rank at 2158

Says Pink is in last, not 2nd.

MacMinute said that its readers informed them of this info. If they don’t follow RailHeadDesign, then they shouldn’t credit the site.
