While Creative's "declaration of war" against the iPod was sort of goofy considering their relative sales this holiday season, the Zen Micro still did a very respectable amount of business (around 2 million units, if I recall correctly). Enough units, at least, that the players' users are starting to plan together, A-Team style, to figure out some pretty great hacks, like this adorable Altoids tin mod (if we're expanding the definition to include drilling through a piece of aluminum and gluing felt) some fresh-breathed lad came up with. It just so happens that the smaller Altoids tin (and other mints, too) is the perfect size to hold a Zen Micro, and by drilling a hole for the headphone in the top, the 1/8-inch plug holds it in place.
