These days, it seems that MP3 players have to do more than just play audio files. No, they have to be portable media players capable of playing video files, photo viewing, audio recording, as well as ebook readers. Now, someone has decided to put another feature on the traditional MP3 player: scent.
That’s right, someone has finally made an MP3 Player that smells. Yes, this Strawberry Shortcake technology has been placed on the iCool MP3 Player, so that you can get a whiff of chocolate, rose, lemon, and even marijuana while you listen to your favorite tunes.
Don’t ask me too much about the Mary Jane scent. I’m guessing that it is an artificial odor, or a lot of people are going to be subject to search and seizure. All of these scented MP3 players (including the pot-scented one) come with a replaceable embossed faceplate, and a 3D holographic lens.
The MP3 players have very little memory, at only about 256MB, however they come with expansionary memory slot that is compatible with SD/MMC memory card reader. They play multiple formats including MP3, WAV, and WMA.
I believe that these are available on the Audiotronic website, but I don’t see a price. In other words, I see a lot of evidence showing that these scented MP3 Players exist, but not enough info to purchase one. I’m beginning to think that someone is bamboozling us, and the marijuana flavor is enough to convince me.
