    Neurotic little whitebuds

    205

    Have you ever wondered about the brilliant design of the iPod whitebuds, that allows them to instantly tie up in a knot the moment you place them in your pocket? that no matter how nice you coil them, they will evolve into a tangled knotted mess that takes minutes to unravel? that out there someone must be making money from all that lost time?

    Turns out Apple added a little piece of plastic to the whitebuds of recent iPods, so it’s just a matter of switching and you get a slightly better, slicker experience. Actually, it still knots up every so often, just not as neurotic as before.

    Thanks to Andy for this tip.
