Batteries and power cords are obsolete. In the future, everything will be powered by refillable hydrogen fuel cells :)

Technology advances, and old technology becomes "obsolete." But as long as it still does what you bought it for, don't worry too much. Did you really expect your PowerBook/Power Mac/iPod/electric razor/kitchen sink to be state-of-the-art forever?

That doesn't make sense, power-cords aren't obsolete until that future is present.

The remote was great with my winter jacket, I would run the remote through my sleeve, and put my iPod in a warm pocket inside. :D
