iPod handbag with built-in speakers
posted Apr 29th 2005 6:43PM
Dude, it's a boombox with a shoulder strap. From BrightonNet, we witness two similar products, both bags with special pockets for iPods plus integrated sound system that we're guessing are slightly updated versions of the Groove Bag that came out a couple of years ago. Both rock the faux leather and have an internal amplifier plus stereo speakers built-in. The outside of the iPod pocket is vinyl to leave the player's controls available, but the audio connection is via a standard stereo mini plug so as long as your player fits in the pouch, you could use this thing with any DAP. Of course, you'll have to get used to remembering that your handbag requires batteries. Ladies, we're clearly the target market for this piece, but we bet there are a few metrosexuals who could pull this off. If you do pick one of these up (either goes for about $122 USD), we'd have to say spontaneous parties in the park are pretty much mandatory.
But but but! Where are you supposed to use this thing without looking like a moron?
It screams "mug me I have an iPod!"
how come i saw this on an advertisement on a CITY BUS before i saw it on engadget? oh well. better late than never :x
Thanks for another bit of great info.
Dude I just spent 15 minutes trying to get around your grammer. Did you mean "we're" as in "we guys are" or did you mean "were" as in "ladies 'were' obviously the target market for this."
The coolest thing about this message is I used the dictionary widget from dashboard to check it for myself...thank you Steve, and the great underlings.
Considering the author is a female I think she met "we are"
If i see some chick walking around blaring some teeny bopper music or something i'm going to go nuts, think about it... I agree with #2
oh and #4 ahaha what are you on, stuff like GRAMMAR, shouldn't bug anybody that much.. Learn to speel.... Yeah that was sarcasm
lol oh dear what next? :)
and who cares about grammar? get a life
In Style magazine (Sunday Times Supplement) 2 weeks ago, this thing was on the way down in the Cool chart thing they have..
The comment was:
"This is not what meant by podcasting.."
yes.. I noticed I missed the word WAS..
"This is not what was meant by podcasting.."
I can see it's going to be one of those days.
Didn't these things come out three years ago?
"Dude I just spent 15 minutes trying to get around your grammer."
Apparently Steve's Dictionary Widget could use some serious work, it's "grammar".
While they're fixing that little bug, maybe they can create a widget to explain the concept of 'woman' to you. I realize you've probably never actually seen a woman up close, but, believe it or not, we do exist outside of your porn collection.
Hehe, that's below the belt! But well deserved. There is something rather clinical about the look of this bag, perhaps accessory for a nurse-convention? And please don't correct my grammar, I'm Norwegian :)
LET THE HANDBAG MAKERS FIGHT BEGIN!!! Coach, Louis, Burberry... let's get redaaaaaaaaaaaaay to ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumba!
Yeah, these things vame out like 3 years ago. They weren't cool then and they aren't cool now.
I dunno, there are some crazy iPod freaks out there... and isn't the 80s in style now? U know carrying around a boom box was considered cool back then!
