Part of me wants to hitch this up on my shoulder and bop on down the street, whilst blasting the Beatards.
Another part of me realizes that I didn't even do that shit in the '80s. Plus I sort of already love my DLO travel speakers.
After the jump, a bonus music video, and then vote for whether you'd love this or leave it.
i really like the idea of it, but don't like the actual product design. i've always liked my boomboxes to be huge and a little unwieldy. carrying one of those says "i'm so into my music that i'm willing to endure scoliosis to share it with you."
Wendy Atterberry is a recent transplant to New York City via Chicago. You can often find her at some karaoke dive bar singing her repertoire, which includes "Midnight Train to Georgia," "Daniel," and most recently, "Sweet Dreams." Don't expect her to always hit the right notes. She lives in Manhattan with her boyfriend and two cats, and has a blog like everyone else.
Alex Zalben is a writer living in New York City. He's written for McSweeney's, Modern Humorist and PulpSecret.com. As one-fifth of the sketch comedy group Elephant Larry, he has been written up in the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and pretty much every other major publication. Their blog was named one of PC Magazine's Top Blogs for 2007, and they recently won an ECNY Award for their viral short, "Minesweeper: The Movie." Alex did not know love until he bought his first Mac.
