TechRadar: Let's be honest. The earbuds Apple bundles with its iPod and iPhone range are horrible. Their sound quality is terrible, with weak bass and a tinny mid-section, they're uncomfortable in the ears and have abysmal sound isolation.
in 2005, Cupertino adopted a "special assignment" to help the US Department of Energy in developing a top-secret iPod which had a special but hidden function.
Released in late 2001, about eight months after the arrival of iTunes, the original Apple iPod music player featured a mini version of the game Breakout.
