i don't know why i want it...

... but i so need it. Like that certain branded handbag, that expensive shirt etc... some things just makes you wanna shove your common sense and just go with it. Here is an example:

A mp3 player clad in a cassette body. Witty. But the twist it, this player is so true to the school! It sticks to the 45, 60 & 90 mins format.

nice

very mac

i'm in love

That is like the amount of sounds you get in a cassette tape back then. Remember the time we lug our walk/disc man around and we really enjoyed the music? Since when did we see the need to lug around the entire music universe?

But the homage to old school does not end here. What about the controls? The display?

Ok. Play is simple enough...

The RWD/FWD thang moved me to tears...

You stick you fingers inside and you wind it.
You wind it gooood. *tears welling up*

Man it does not end here. Check out the case.

argh. those who grew up in the 80s would have fond memories of these tapes cover that cracks every so easily? How about the tapes you got? Those jacky cheung tapes? Grasshoppers? Faye Wong? Leslie Cheung?

How do you monitor the elapsed time? Remember peering into the door of the walkman and looking at the thickness of the tape inside? Side A? Side B?


With all the old school salutes, this player is no lame duck. It comes with built in USB connection. The image of a cassette sticking out of the USB dock of you PC... man... so fresh!

Check the finale

you finger the cassette tape to charge it! You charge is goooood!

NOW. You know your current mp3 player can easily outspec this player. But you would really like to know how much it cost huh?

'well if it is not too expensive...'

SAY IT! You know you want it!
