Blinkit: the blinking light iPod accessory

I'd file this under the "hmmm" category if we had one: Blinkit is a blinking light attachment for iPods with dock connectors. Intuitive Devices, Inc. brands it as something you can use for personal safety while biking, hiking, jogging, etc., since it has seven flashing cycles (including a "flash to beat" music mode) and the ability to re-direct its lights in a couple of directions. The Blinkit comes with tinted lens caps and is powered by two bright OLEDs inside so it drains very little power from your iPod's battery.

Sounds like an interesting accessory, but it sells for $29.95 which might put it outside some iPod owners' budgets. Kudos for creativity though.
