wired.com — It has been seven years since Steve Jobs announced the first "perfect thing" in the fall of 2001. Since then, very few products have come to exact total domination in their respected fields like the iPod has. And really, no other gadget in recent memory (save for maybe the iPhone) has exploded onto the cultural cache with the same impact.

But you have to admit, the color combo for the U2 iPod was kick ass.

I'll give you the original walkman (30 years ago, not really relavant to anything here). But the portable CD player? Big deal. It was a natural evolution of both the walkman and the home CD player. Sony had a majority market share has nothing to do with being ground breaking or revolutionary. For the most part, one CD player was the same as any other. There was no software, no significant user interface, no integration with your PC/Mac/TV/Internet, no new or unique business model.
