The iBangle


Just in case it wasn't fashionable enough to strap your nano onto your arm now there is the iBangle, yes, for serious! According to Racked LA, designer Gopinath Pransana created a thin aluminum bracelet with icy blue accents which plays music and has built-in functions a la the iPod, including a multi-touch trackpad (shown above). It would also have an air chamber to inflate, so the bracelet doesn't slip around the wrist. Listen to music via wireless in-ear headphones and you're good to go. Check out all the photos here, and dare to dream of Apple bringing the iBangle to life.

Too much! I don't know if I could do an even smaller ipod than the one I have now, even in bracelet form. My fingers are way too fat. LOL.

huh? with a stupid cord having to go all the way up to my ear, that won't get in the way or anything! Necklaces are better.

Omg. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I think I'd lose it way too easily.
