So one day, you woke up and had the odd thought - maybe there's an MP3 player out there that's not an iPod? Congratulations - you've just taken your first step into a larger world. However, as with Bluetooth headsets, sometimes conspicuous is not always better.BoingBoing shows off a video on turning a laser tag belt / gun combo into an MP3 player. Now laser tag - excuse me - lazer tag - is all well and good in a proper venue, but walking down the street, pulling the trigger to skip to the next track, well, that's almost as bad as wearing white Converse.
What's better than lazer tag? Ubergizmo says: a lightsaber, of course. Having a functional lightsaber would of course be the coolest thing ever but given that all real-life lightsabers are just fancy handles, they're basically just dorktacular. Sadly, this lightsaber MP3 player doesn't exist, but you probably know someone who would buy it if it did.


See if you can spot the Star Wars quote in the post!
