<SIGH> Yet another candidate for the ugliest iPod accessory. This isn't "Retro"--it would have been considered ugly during any era/decade/time. The only thing "Retro" about it is the square corners and the plastic/Bakelite look. The p*ke/cr*p -- er, green/brown -- scheme would clash with just about any other color.It makes one wonder just what the designer(s) was/were on when he/they came up with this design. More important, though, why did the company executives (if there are any) think that this was a good idea?
