I think that the iring is the best item to have for Apple. The iring is light weight and is hard to lose because it fit's right on your finger. It can turn your ipod on, off, turn your music down or up, fast forward and rewind, and choose a different song. If you were to lose your ipod the iring would most likely have memory stored on it. Also if someone were to use your ipod and they are donig something on it you don't want them doing and they won't give it back you can just turn it off by your iring.
