Small Wonder

Much though I dislike Wal-Mart, it is now selling one of the latest Asian fads: the Mobiblu Cube mp3 player. This literally tiny little marvel packs in an mp3 player, a radio, and a recorder into the space of a sugar lump, and then manages to also include a very sexy organic LED (OLED) on the surface for a self-luminescent display. This makes that terrible shuffle flash player from Apple look even crappier than before.

Soon audio players will be small enough to shove in your ear, no separate headphones required. It’ll be like the Babel Fish from Hitchhiker’s, only with better tunes and less sliminess.
