Welcome to Constructive Criticism 101:
The goal of this course is to teach you how to criticize people with the intention of having them learn something.

- Your comment sucks.

When you say something sucks, it's probably because you thought it out in your head, and came to some conclusion as to why it sucks. The problem is that people cannot read your mind (nor would they ever want to). Therefore, it helps the general understanding of others if you give a reason as to why you find something "sucky"

For example, if i say to you, "Your comment sucks", it doesn't really tell you anything constructive. But if I say to you "Your comment sucks, because you don't offer anything of value/constructive or otherwise to this thread", now i am giving you information as to how you can better yourself.

That concludes lesson 1 of CC101. Review your notes, and we will have a quiz on this tommorrow.

first of all, total volume and weight does not equal to smallest ...

let's talk about the weight issue first. an item that weighs the least does not automatically mean it's the smallest. A beach ball is lighter than a baseball yes? For example, a blown up beach ball is much larger than a baseball, but the baseball is much smaller in size. so there you go, who's the idiot?

2nd, let's talk about overall volume issue. yes, if you take HxWxD and do math on it, the shuffle has a smaller volume, but what about total footprint? you can fit the mobiBLU in a 1" cube container. Can you do the same with the shuffle? Hells no, so again, is the shuffle really smaller than the mobiBLU? no, in overall footprint, it is in fact much larger than the cube. You can try to cram the shuffle into an 1" container, but you will fail. The shuffle is much thinner than the cube, but overall footprint, it's much larger. Again, Apple fanboi's proving why they are all idiots on ATOT.

Like I said, apple is pure marketing and you idiots just proved that it's working for them.

You're an idiot.

good comeback moron....

He's right. Volume is the only sensible way to distinguish smallest.

And your whole "footprint" argument is also silly. Footprint has nothing to do with a 1 inch cube, the only two rational definitions for footprint would be the area of one side, probably most correct, or the total area.

no one here is saying "Cubiness" has anything to do with anything...

but I do know that you can put the mobiBLU into both an 1" cube and 1.63" cube container. You can only put the new shuffle into the second one.

Apples says it's the smallest in the world, why can't it fit into a 1" container? If it really is the smallest in the world, it would be able to fit into a container smaller than the mobiBLU. Bottom line, it is not the smallest.

Does that mean I hate the new shuffle? no, I like it because it's easier to use than the mobiBLU, but it's not the smallest.

WTF U IDIOT?! DO YOU KEEP YOUR MP3 PLAYERS IN 1 INCH CUBE CONTAINERS?!? OR IN YOUR POCKET???? GOD, STFU!!!!!
