People aren't "blinging" their gadgets like they used to. Two years ago, gals everywhere were sending their gadgets off to places like NYC  Peach to get a $300 Swarovski makeover, but now their idea of bling requires a trip to the jewelry store.

I recently told you about XEXOO's $10,000 customized iPod shuffle covered in pure solid 18 carat gold, and exactly a month later, I hear about another jeweler generating buzz with his latest creation: a $40,000 diamond covered iPod shuffle.

Heyerdahl Jewelers calls the white and pink gold, diamond covered iPod shuffle the iDiamond. Currently the world's most expensive iPod, the iDiamond is set with a total of 430 diamonds: 312 diamonds cover the player itself, and 118 diamonds adorn the white earbuds. Judging by the picture, the player is supposed to be worn like a diamond necklace, which is odd because the iPod shuffle has a clip on the back. I'm guessing you could wear it either way, and at $40,000 you probably should wear it everyday, any way you want it. IDiamond is for sale at Heyerdahl in Norway, and will be on display in stores until October 1.

    If they're going to mess with a shuffle, how about turning it into a wristwatch (or at least adding it to the band) or a necklace? My Shuffle is clipped to a big set of headphones, and the cord is wrapped out of the way - it works well when I'm mowing the yard. If I had $40K to spare on an iPod, I would expect it to come with video & a masseuse. Cheers, Grumpy
