The iPod is considered by many to be the music industry's most perfect MP3 player. And although competition has started to catch up with Apple, the company still has a few more iTricks up its iSleeve. One of these iTricks came out recently (although from all the publicity, one would think that it's been a staple in the music entertainment industry for years, already). Meet the iPod mini. Although the name might at first be indicative of an Austin Powers spoof gone wrong, the iPod mini has been making a name in its own right, apart from its older brother, the iPod. Does this sequel of an MP3 player follow in the footsteps of its older iSibling, or is favoritism something to watch out for? Discuss this Article!
