Poster: A snowHead
|
Motorola announced today that is working with Burton to market a range of snowboard jackets, helmets and caps incorporating mobile phones. These will supplement Burton's existing commitment to building MP3 players into their outerwear.
The deal also opens up the opportunity of Motorola cross-promoting its new partnership with Apple (announced last July), whose iPods have become the MP3 player of choice...
Apple is developing a slimmed-down version of its iTunes jukebox software to be installed on some of Motorola's phones.
This report from Reuters.
Any comments? Would you buy this kit?
Last month we had a thread concerning Giro's phone-wired helmets, which triggered some controversy. Click here to read it.
By the way, sorry about that photo. The Man from Motorola looks a bit scary - like Oddjob, the Korean henchman of Goldfinger, who tried to kill James Bond with his steel-rimmed frisbee bowler.

kuwait_ian, pleased to say that most of my 12" is still in regular use, but it doesn't make good mobile music on the mountains. The needle jumps.
Or did you mean "those with 12" tend not to use them as a ruler"?

David, why am I not surprised that you're a vinyl man?
|

Probably because I wear a plastic mac, and you've never taken the trouble to see that there's real flesh and bones underneath.
If Hitler had succeeded with his vinyl solution I wouldn't be around at all, so just count yourself lucky.
