Tom Peters on the design of Ipod
“I’m frankly worried-as a Design Fanatic-about the perfection of iPods and CrossAction TBrushes; I worry that “design” is becoming sterilized or, worse, standardized-sterilized.”
Is he right?

As you can see in the comment tails this created a major discussion. I am having a hard time dealing with this.. It seems as if he doesn’t think the iPod will innovate it’s design because it already had succes. I do not agree in that.. Jonathan Ive will probably keep up.. he is one of the finest designers on the globe right now.
In Tom Peters’ discussion thread there is a funny goodbye letter to the iPod
Also, there was a good and passionate discussion on the iPod “jumping the shark” at Signal vs. Noise a while ago.
