Oakley THUMP MP3 Sun Glasses
Sep 16 2004, 4:31am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr
Oakley launches line of MP3 Player Eyewear with new site (thanks Taka). The Oakley THUMP glasses have a music player built-in.
This are the first music player glasses as far as I know. We had Music Player Headsets before, but to have a 256MB MP3 Player built-in glasses is new. Lance Armstrong had the Oakley Thump already at the Tour de France.
The Oakley THUMP comes in seven color combinations and in 128MB and 256MB storage sizes. The music glasses play MP3, WMA (DRM support) and WAV. The battery-life is only 6 hours, but it features USB 2.0. The MP3 glasses feature Oakley's High Definition Optics lenses.

The Oakley Thump glasses should be in stores for the holiday season. No pricing information available yet. More details on the Oakley THUMP site and in Oakley THUMP borchure (pdf). |
