Steve was joking, of course. He also said that competitors were making more money on cases for gadgets than Apple was making on iPods. So, the iPod Socks were born...A sock to keep your iPod warm in the winter..Dusky

Hehe... perfect -- a damn sock. While they're cool, that's all I think they are. Kind of perpetuates the "smelly old granola hippie" stereotype that Mac users have gotten.
I'll bet that smelly old granola hippie dude in my computer science class has one for his iPod next time I see him... 2009 Mac mini 2.0GHz • 2010 MacBook Air 11" • 2010 MacBook Pro 13" • LED 24" Cinema Display

I like how Steve first showed the Socks when talking about iPod and then said: "So, that's it about iPod." (as if there was nothing more to announce...)
