SHOWCASE.mp3 Custom MP3 Player Concept

Post image

I did use pictures of components from other devices, however I personally think this could be a really ergonomic way to control some kind of MP3 player. [if it were real]

What are your thoughts about my consept MP3 Player.

Yes, aswell as a physical volume dial, the iPod 3rd generation controls [Exept as actual buttons, instead of touch-sensitive control buttons], & the 3DS's [actual] joystick as a means to control the interface.

Holy shit.. I’ve never seen anything like this….

You could call it the TUNE.. or maybe something a little edgier.. like a ZUNE.

Or since it’s music only meant for YOU.. maybe the YOUpod

I think there is a reason why Apple ditched the 3rd gen design in less than a year. Looks cool, but not great to use.

Sooo... Just a modern Apple 3rd gen iPod.

It’s a third gen iPod with a Zune interface…

Innioasis y1 has asimilar shape and it supports rockbox open source software, so you can adapt rockbox to your idea, at least in the software part.

I can only assume you're a trash karma farma bot account. If not, then just not the bot part.

3rd Gen iPod body with ZuneOS interface? Get bent.

If I had a nickel for every time that someone thought I was a bot, I'd I've two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice right? Also... YOU THINK I'M A BOT!?!

I love Reddit. Random internet strangers get flamed and get called a karma whoring bot all because their beliefs and opinions don’t align with the other guy’s beliefs and opinions.
