Levi's iPod jeans pop up in the Netherlands
Bright Techlifestyle, a Dutch website, has found photos of Levi's new iPod-compatible jeans. Levi's first announced the RedWired DLX iPod jeans in January, but it's taken until now for samples of the jeans, which have a built-in iPod connector and retractable headphones, to make an appearance.

Gizmodo instantly declared them "ridiculous". One big problem, according to the snarky gadget blog: The red ribbon of cable that connects your iPod to the jeans' built-in headphones is easy to snag, and once that rips, all you've got is an ordinary pair of jeans with a lot of pockets.
