Lego MP3 Player
The next MP3 player I want to add to my collection is the LEGO MP3 player available at ThinkGeek.com. That is if they ever get it back in stock. As it advertises, who needs a docking station? You can build this player into any LEGO creation you have made. Maybe it is just that part of me that is a big kid, but you never get tired of playing with LEGO bricks. Many countless days were spent building cities and other creations.
Enough of my past time, lets get on to the MP3 player. From the specs given on the ThinkGeek.com website, the player has:
- Two Gigabytes of memory. That’s about five hundred songs.
- A rechargeable battery with eight hours of playback.
- A USB 2.0, Type B mini-USB port
- A 3.5mm headphone jack
- It weighs half a pound
- It measures 1.6 by 0.6 by 2.2 inches
- Has support for MP3 and WMA files.
- Includes Headphones and a USB cable.
- The software is already built into the unit.
Being that small of a unit I imagine that the screen can be hard to read. And according to some reviews I’ve come across, that is the case. It has some picture viewing capability, but not that it would be worth it on such a small screen. The main use is music and why shouldn’t it be? That is the main function of an MP3 player. The main appeal of this player is of course the nostalgia factor for all the people that grew up with LEGOS and the kids who are currently enjoying them. So all in all, it appears to be a fun unit.
