Gawd.  What’s next?  iPod PANTS?  iPod MESH T-SHIRTS?  STOP THE MADNESS!

This is simply the THE MOST important evolution of the iPOD’s history!  The missing piece! 

Now, some questions for all of the early adopters who have been using these gems:
- Are they color-fast?
- Do they keep your feet warm?

Makes me wonder if I should start sizing my shoes accordingly (Mini, G3 40G, Photo 60G, etc.)

Yes, m. sherman, but I wonder how many people will actually buy them thinking that you wear them.

Probably fits a platypus.

I’d buy one—the white one.

Oh, wait, you have to buy ALL the colors, and none of them is white.

I’ll use a real sock then.

Conversation overheard in the near future:

Sniff. Hey!  Your iPod smells like a dirty sock!

Great gimmick for employers who give iPods as incentives or for rich uncles who plan to get iPods for everyone this holiday season. For the rest of us? meh

I can’t believe everyone thinks these are for real. It’s just a JOKE. How embarrassing.

A prerequisite of a joke is it has to be funny….

I’m thinking…ummm…iShoe, iSneaker (comes in iHightop & iLowtop), iLoafer with iPenny included to wear with your iPod Socks.

I’m rich, I’m rich.

i see no reason to think they’re a joke. 

also, i would much prefer to have them available as singles insted of a $30 pack.

for not liking them, you seem to have visited this page a lot.

Zip!  So I guess what you are saying is that I should put a sock in it?  Apologies.

hahaha, clever.

i really am surprised no other vendors have really tried something like this (i realise there were small home made “socks” available, but i like the idea of a case that can keep the ipod from getting scratched in my pocket, but is easy to slip out of.  i would have liked something like the cinch bag that came with the ipod, only more snug.
