MP3 PEZ!

Hey kids...what's cool, crunchy and full of flavour?
Hmmm....need another clue?
It's dispensed from a small plastic tube?
...that plays MP3s...

HUH!

That's right. It looks like the fine folks at Pez have jumped on the technological bandwagon. They have created the first candy/MP3 player. For a mere $99.00 you too can grab one. The storage is 512 MB (120 songs), which isn't too shabby. The thing that gets me is the battery lasts up to 20 hours...that's 15 more than my 20 gig 3G iPod (are you reading this Mr. Jobs!), which I might add was just a tad bit more than 99 bucks.

Put this together with a cool tale of a stay-at-home dad and a dream...it's a pretty decent story. Will I buy one? Probably not, but I like the idea. Although the image of the skateboarder on the site doesn't quite give it a mobile feel...how many skaters skate with their music player "on" their skateboards?
