The reason he's featured in the ads is because he helped with the design. The guy standing there is the lead singer from a Taiwanese band, not Japanese.

But looking at the new shuffle for the same price, I think the Ipod clipon shuffle is gonna have this beat. Unless the kids truly find this cooler... I doubt it.

Some Japanese singer standing in front the of the WTC wreckage? I guess we can look forward to further ads with the firebombing of Dresden, concentration camps, and oh yeah, how about Hiroshima & Nagasaki? Idiots.

Plus it possible to get 3+ GBs (2+ GB Micro SD card) of music in a mp3 player the size of a dog tag... Wonder how you charge the thing? Through the audio port like the New Ipod Shuffle?
