| Nu Tech Dark Shadow 256MB MP3 Sunglasses
|
Technology and gadgets are two of my favorite things. So it only goes to follow that when someone combines the two it will get my attention. Nu Tech has combined one of the most popular technology items of today, an MP3 player, with something many of us use every day, a pair of sunglasses. I am the first to admit I am a sucker for any tool or gadget that tries to combine more than one use or function into a single item, but I also have learned from experience that many times such items fail to perform well at any of the tasks they were designed to do. Thanks to Geeks.com, we have a set of the Nu Tech Dark Shadow 256 MB MP3/Voice Recording Sunglasses to evaluate and see just how well they have pulled off combining of an MP3 player/Voice Recorder with a pair of sunglasses.
