Default Ipod packaging design?

Well, my parents got me a touch for Christmas, and it came in one of those wicked acrylic cases...Now I think Apple is pretty smart.

The way they design the packaging, there is no tape- there are only easy-to-put-back-on stickers. All you have to do is rip off the top sticker, open the top piece, take off the screen-protecting sticker, and take the thing out. The accessories are hidden, so you can just take some out if they don't fit when you put it back.

It's almost as if Apple designed this so it would be easy to open early and take a pee. In fact, I've taken it out, jailbroken it, played a few internet games, set up the wi-fi, uploaded my entire music and video collection, and when I put it back and carefully stick the stickers on with a straightedge, It looks completely unopened!

Hahaha

Damn....

My Classic 80GB came in a nice black box where everything was placed perfectly inside.

I have to admit, Apple certainly know how to package stuff up.
