The Siemens Runster

Siemens Runster

Siemens is a little light on the details with this guy, but apparently their new Runster digital audio player—safe to assume it's flash—contains some accelerometers that attempt to ensure the music you're hearing matches in tempo and rhythm to your running pace. We don't know what happens if you stop for a walk in the middle of a track, but we're sure they've got something worked out. We're still a little unsure about the theory here, though—why would you want the music to get slower when you're getting tired? You think your personal trainer would sing you a lullaby when you started getting worn out?
