don't like

I really don't like the sounds that resonate through your body and what's the point in having one if it can't go in water and/or has an MP3 player or Ipod installed!

New lo-tech version announced.

For Immediate Release
---------------------

Easter Island Audio and Video has anncounced a new lo-tech version of the bon-conduction sound machine.

A large man(named Bunga) with a club walks around behind you. Select a song on you IPod and Bunga will beat out the music on your skull with his club. Bone conduction does the rest.

"Other than a certain amount of blood-spatter, I think it's just great"' says Prefontaine Tentious, offical spokesman for Easter Island Audio and Video. He was wearing a hospital gown, a large bloody turban of bandages and appeared to be slurring his speech slightly.

The only reported drawback is if the user asks for a tune that Bunga does not know. Bunga the plays a different tune on your noggin' while saying, "Bunga don't play dat."

Temco Japan is a highly-respected manufacturer of audio conduction products, including the great "ShellShocker" motorcycle helmet mic/speaker system. Here is a link to their home page:
