New BlingPlayer Iced Out MP3 Player From MediaReady.
You’ve seen them before. The jewel or rhinestone encrusted personal media players that show off the either vast wealth of their owner or cast amount of time the owner took to attach all that bling. I’ll admit, I think they’re pretty cool… For chicks! When it comes to the fellas however, MediaReady seems to have “gotten it” with their latest design. Their new BlingPlayer product line features a new wearable design that I can picture in the next Nelly video. The player itself is removeable because let’s face it, who wants to wear their MP3 player in a chain all day.
The player is smaller in size than the iPod Nano but this device only comes in a 1GB and 2GB formate whereas the iPod Nano can comes in 2, 4, and 8 GB configurations. But then if you’re buying the BlingPlayer for it’s “dogtag” or “skull’n'bones” style jeweled out designs who cares about the hard drive? You can use you real media player — like your iPod or Zune — for long trips and wear your BlingPlayer when you’re just out having fun. This player was obviously intended to be compared more with the iPod Nano than anything else.
