Thanko Mubie Jogger Wearable MP3 Player
Dec 10 2004, 8:18am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr
Japanese Gadget Company Thanko introduces a headset with integrated MP3 Player.
The Thanko Mubie Jogger headset with integrated mp3 player is not the first of its kind. Although I think it might the first with a LCD screen. We reported about the EVO headset MP3 Player and the TDK Mojo in the past.
The wearable Thanko MP3 Player weighs only 50g and features 512MB storage. The headset plays WMA and MP3 music files and has a FM Tuner. The 3 color display has 96x64 pixels. The Mubie Jogger has a price of 24,980 Yen (~236USD).
More details on Thanko Mubie Jogger product page (Japanese). First seen on Soroban Geeks (French).

We reported about Thanko Gadgets before. They offer MP3 Watches or the freaky six speaker surround head-set. Another one is the Thanko Spy Pen with SD/MMC Card Reader. And of course we cannot forget the Aquarium PC Mouse from Thanko. Just recently we reported about the Thanko Flowerpot Speakers.
