Four gigs—it’s not just the capacity of this adorable iPod; it’s also the tragically short lifespan of each of our last three bands. People just aren’t ready for Zydecore.

Mini makes everything better! Take the common skirt for example. It’s alright. Comfortable, we’d guess. Versatile. But make it a mini, and—well, good gravy, sister, you’ve got our attention!

Here’s another one. You know who drives vans? Serial killers and child abductors, that’s who. But minivans? Responsible, generous PTA moms whose children have full schedules of rewarding extra-curricular activities!

We could go on and on. Golf? A bore. Mini golf? The best. Bikes? Ho-hum. Minibikes? Va-room-a-zoom-zoom! And would you be happy to discover a mouse in your kitchen? Probably not. But what if she were that lovable animated sweetheart Mini (spelling altered to make our admittedly somewhat tenuous argument and avoid legal action)?

In this spirit of miniphilia, we present to you a modern classic among lifestyle accessories: The iPod Mini. With four gigs of storage, Apple’s singularly intuitive interface, and all the Bobo cachet your public image can bear, this is one portable music device that’s truly mini-fresh.
