Dumbest MP3 Player Finally Invented
Posted by Brendan Goetz in "HARDWARE" @ 05:00 PM
"The Code M System is integrated into the basketball sneaker's heel and tongue. It can hold up to 100 songs, running on a 6-hour battery life. To transfer songs onto the system, just use the USB port on the side of the shoe. To listen to your music, use the included wireless headset, which picks up the music playing from your sneakers up to 30 feet away. Here comes the real kicker: the sneakers will also feature house speakers for listening to music out loud. (I can just imagine Michael Jordan being the spokesperson.)"
Um...yeah. I always thought that the Oakley Thumps were way left of geeky, but this is just dumb all day. I mean, who wants to be stuck on a train with some jerk whose sneakers are blaring out "We're Not Gonna Take It!" during rush-hour? Not to mention trying to walk onto a plane with these (cavity search, anyone?). What’s next? Wait I’ve got it: MP3 underpants! Put some rock in your jock! Good work guys. Way to keep cranking out the good ideas. Seriously. Nice job.
