"Ray of Light" HA! humor.

I think it's a fun toy--and I like using the iPod's battery instead of some other wasteful little battery to change, charge, or throw out. Now I'll have one flashlight that's always charged, with no special effort since I'll be charging my iPod anyway.

I suppose you could leave the light on aimed at the ceiling while in the dock, as a night light too. Can you stop the iPod from sleeping ever?

Got mine... they seem well made, but no iPod to try them with yet. Side benefit: the keychain caps can also protect an iTrip or other accessory's connectors.

Bottom line is they were a fun iPod add-on that wouldn't have interested me as standalone. A decision based more on "toy" value than on practicality... not unlike the iPod itself! And I only overpaid by the price of a pizza smile

Although a pizza would sure be nice as I wait for my iPod...

Sure this is what we need, a laser and a flashlight for our iPods. While were at it, how about a food processor attachment? Or pehaps a smokeless ash tray attachment. smile

Useful for the times you're listening to your ipod late at night and the power goes out. Voila! Now your favorite MP3 player can also double as a flashlight.

And no, I didn't say that with a straight face. lol. This is perfect for those people who want to feel like MacGyver or something.

I just received the two items tonight (for my birthday). The laser pointer is cool, the flashlight not a bad idea (similar to the little "pinchlights" that are often sold through shops like REI). It might even help my old eyes read a menu in a dark restaruant. Since the two items were a gift, it's difficult ot find complaint with either item. I do give lots of presentations and the laser would come in handy - but I have to ask myself why I'd have my iPod with me, since I'd have have my laptop to run my Keynote show, and my laptop has iTunes. But then, I ALWAYS have my iPod with me! Oh, well, I think I'll try it out on the dog and see if he wants to chase the light.

Actually, this thing is great at school, and for freaking out cats/dogs. at school after shining it the teacher checked everyone, and he didn't even know what the hell it was. it may be a bit overpriced, but this thing is still pretty cool.
