The "Ultimate" smallest MP3 player weighs less than one ounce

Beware, this is a sob story! MP3 players were once visible. Now, they're getting so small that people have trouble locating them. Take this strange mini-sized MP3 player for example. What if it gets under your fingernail? What if you drop it into your food accidentally?

Worse, you might even drop it in the toilet and not even realize the little thing is gone for good. I'm sorry, but I can't believe normal people will go for this. But maybe it's targeted at the elves and pygmies. I'm wrong, even pygmies will loose this thing while chasing and hunting elephants.

The fingertip-sized device is as noisy as a brick-sized music player and will probably make pygmies cry for help. The device has a built-in FM radio (pygmies don't have a radio station!), 2 GB of memory that can store up to 200 hours of music. It handles MP1, MP2, MP2.5 (not!), MP3, WMA, WMV, ASF, WAV 7. It also supports these EQ selections: normal, rock, pop, classic, soft, jazz and bass. It offers the same level of quality of sound found at 10 X larger MP3 players (that's what the manufacturer said). Don't you believe it! You can take this with you to the gym, office and hiking (even to church or to net hunting with the pygmies). The music player comes with a built-in 3.7V lithium battery which will let you listen to music for hours (minutes, seconds and so on). Don't worry about the headphones. They're included with your purchase. Actually, the headset is heavier than the 2GB MP3. It's not waterproof! This means it will inevitably shrink and it will slowly become invisible. If you want it, you can get if online for 99, 95 $ from GadgetUniverse.
