Electrical items should never be dwarfed by the things you plug into them

Wednesday, September 12th, 2007

Because where will it end? With chargers bigger than MP3 players? With you plugging your MP3 player into some sort of dock?

When it comes to that, we should all rise as one and revolt.

Hands up who’s fooled

It’s a drawing. Just because you show us a drawing of it in water and use the word ‘waterproof’ doesn’t mean it is.

Looks a bit like a submarine though, so maybe I’ll get one anyway.

More pictures of MP3 players floating against a white background please

No, seriously. Particularly if your product’s white as well.

It all makes it really easy for the likes of me, who’ve got a little bored with writing about the products themselves and instead prefer to make a weak joke about a picture that they’ve found.

Sandisk Shaker set to wow kids for a split second or more

You shake it and it changes track.

My CD player does that.

Man Threatens Watch With Potential Replacement

Monday, August 20th, 2007

watch.JPGThis is clearly a threat. The owner of the hand, tired with the watch’s lack of ambition has attempted to motivate the offending timepiece by giving it a glimpse of its potential successor.

The young upstart challenger is a haptic MP3 player that apparently vibrates in time to music. If it can vibrate, you’d presume it can remember the time.

Your days a numbered wristwatch.

Does anyone else find the word ‘earbuds’ weirdly offputting?

Friday, August 17th, 2007

earbuds.jpg‘Headphones’ I’m fine with. ‘Earphones’ is acceptable. But ‘earbuds’? I don’t know. There’s just something about it.

Can anyone put their finger on it? Why should ‘earbuds’ be so unappealing?

Samsung T9 MP3 Player

Thursday, August 16th, 2007

t9.jpgWhat the frig is this MP3 player called?

The header of the press release says ‘T9′. The first line of that press release refers to it as ‘the YP-T9′ and then, two lines later, it’s branded, ‘the YP-T9JAB’.

Fortunately, the press release ends there, otherwise Samsung would doubtless tack on a few more meaningless letters to confuse the issue further.

Whatever it is, it comes with some Flash games, including “Baseball” and “Pizza Delivery”. The latter sounds like a winner and should shift a few units for Samsung simply through its presence.

Samsung SGH X830 kleptomaniac reveals the fruits of her endeavours

Six? That’s crap.

The standard of kleptomania in this country is really at rock bottom.

Samsung pocketwatch - let’s wear completely inappropriate clothes for an activity like they used to in Victorian times

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007

This is fantastic. Samsung are now my favourite MP3 player manufacturers. Although it’s a hollow honour, being as I hate all the other ones.

Just look at this. It’s an MP3 player in the style of a pocket watch.

pocketwatch.jpg

Perhaps this will herald a return to the Victorian mentality here in England.

You’ll be dining in your gentleman’s club, as is your custom, when Edmund will wager that you can’t cross the Kalahari desert in less than the time it will take him to sell his late aunt Winifred’s house.

“Very well,” you answer. “I will leave immediately.”

So off you trot, in your top hat and suit with a cane and this pocket watch/MP3 player. You’ll remain in this garb throughout your adventure, never once batting an eyelid at the most punishing hardship. Walking bolt-upright, top hat attached, never once losing your composure.

You succeed and on your return you reveal to Edmund that you also calculated the density of the moon while you were away, as well as charting the migratory paths of four different sorts of bird - one previously undiscovered.

This woman loves MP3 players

Look. She’s even got an MP3 player vest on.

Who even owns an MP3 player vest?

Who makes an MP3 player vest?

Brainic Vitawave II MP3 Player

Friday, August 3rd, 2007

vitawave2.jpgBrainic’s Vitawave II looks like the Vitawave I and it’s got virtually the same name as the Vitawave I. Normally I write about the product’s name or appearance.

I could actually do this properly and read a press release about the Vitawave II, but unfortunately my pathetic monolinguality means that I can’t comprehend Brainic’s website. So what do I do?

I know. Make the picture bigger: Behold.

When small becomes too small (it happened ages ago)

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

stupidlysmall.jpg

Look at that. That’s too small. She can’t even hold the bloody thing properly.

Rubbish.

Look at the MP3 player. Look at it!

“Look at it! Look at the MP3 player! Can you see the MP3 player? I’m holding it RIGHT IN YOUR FACE!”

Brainic Vitawave I MP3 Player

Monday, July 30th, 2007

vitawave.jpgI’m feeling slightly upset. I wrote a great - a BRILLIANT - update about how you wore this on your head and how it would make you look like a gimboid. Now I’ve just found another picture with the contraption clasped around a hand. It’s nowhere near big enough to go on your head.

Maybe it’s for animals. Lemurs could wear it on their heads. Eagles could. A good many fish could, although they don’t have ears. Wait, neither do eagles.

Brainic’s Vitawave I has been designed for lemurs.
