Shufflephones 2.0

Posted by timothy on from the status-symbology dept.

Photo_Designer writes "After hacking my first pair of headphones to accept an iPod Shuffle, I just couldn't keep my hands off my other set of headphones and hacked an iPod shuffle adapter inside them, too. This version also includes an all-new expansion jack which allows sharing your music on the go, plugging your Shuffle into a stereo with a patch cable (without removing it from the phones), and also allows the headphones to be used as regular phones with the shuffle removed or turned off."

  1. Head + Speaker Phones? by onetruedabe · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    How come nobody's invented headphones with speakers which face outward?

    Like what you're listening to? Want other people to hear it as well? Push a button and go from "personal" mode to "speakerphone" mode.

    You'd need some sort of baffle, obviously, to protect your ears from amplified music, but it wouldn't have to be *THAT* loud...

    Certainly not as loud as those Gh3tt0 B0yZ in their thud-rumbling six-fours ("Mah music's so loud I gots-ta lean outside mah car just to listens to it!")
