Newsweek posted an article late last week about the U.S. military’s use of the iPod with soldiers. The iPod is replacing hardware specially built to military specifications. Here’s the money quote if you ask me:

Typically sheathed in protective casing, iPods have proved rugged enough for military life.

If it’s tough enough for the U.S. military, it’s probably tough enough for your use!
