A Silver Ooze That Could Shrink the iPod

I think the Kindle is significant because it can really change the portability of having books. You will be able to read hundreds of books using 1 electronic device

Also, I think the idea of having a slimmer iPod is a great idea. It would be more portable. They would find a technique for cramming large amounts of flash memory into a tight space. By using Vertical Circuits’ technology, device makers can fit lots of high-speed memory into their products and leave more room for bigger displays and larger batteries.
