I saw this mp3 player way back at the podcast and portable media expo. This MP3 player is about the size of the blue chalk cube for a pool table

We know that music can help reduce stress. You could also assume that being a soldier in Iraq or Kosovo would be stressful, but can you wrap your head around soldiers carrying musical pillows? That does not sound like something John Wayne would have done but Danish soldiers are testing that idea that according to Podcasting News.
Danish soldiers on missions to Iraq and Kosovo are testing a new tool for combating stress: MP3 pillows that play new-age music.
The MusiCure Pillow has built-in speakers attached to an mp3-player that plays instrumentals and sounds of nature, like trickling water and chirping birds.
“We have sent 10 pillows each to Iraq and Kosovo and they are now being used by the troops,” said Henrik Lundstein, of the Denmark Royal Defense College.
MusiCure is a series of music designed to have a soothing and physically relaxing effect, and stimulate the mind in a positive way, creating experiences and images. The MusiCure Pillow is designed for use in hospitals and other therapeutic situations.

According to the Unofficial Apple Weblog:
File this one under “completely ridiculous.” iPod nano owners have filed a class action suit against Apple Computer over the nano’s susceptibility to scratches. Is it just me, or is this like suing Kodak because your photos got fingerprints on them? Now hold on to your hats, because here’s where it gets really silly. The owners named in the suit are demanding that customers get their money back (because the thing got a scratch on it), as well as a share of Apple’s profits on iPop nano sales. Because it got scratched.
So as I understand this “I want my money back because this product is bad, but I want a piece of it because it is so good”. Uhhh… sure. That makes sense.
