the perfict thing

1)  The article clearly demonstartes the trial and error part of the design process, becasue the designers of the new iPod had to try any different ideas before they could find the perfect design.  This process resulted in numerous failures, in which they had to evaluate and evetually come up with a better solution.

2)  To evaluate a "perfect thing", i would use the factor of how efficient it is and how helpful it will be to the comunity.  Also, i would look at the style and see if it is appealing to all cultures.

3)  I feel that the strengths of the product are that it has the ability to hold a numerous amount of songs and gives the user the ability to scroll through all these songs with ease.  The only weakness i have is that you are not able to transfer music from your ipod onto the computer.
