Gadget | MP3 Sunglasses | PASS

If you run or ride, you need a pair of these sunglasses. No more wires, no device bouncing around or attached to you, easy to operate and they don't look any worse than any other pair of similar looking sunglasses. I paid twelve bucks (with free shipping) for mine and they are an amazing alternative to the fabulous Oakley Thumps, which run $200-$400! They can be worn two ways - with the earbuds inside your ear (a bit tricky) or outside (which works surprisingly well). Comes with everything you need, including a 120V charger.

The sound probably won't satisfy audiophiles, but then nothing ever does. There are a few interesting options and features. Weirdly, the lens can flip up while you are wearing them. The frames stay in place, but you can look extra nerdy if you fancy it. Also, they come in a variety of colors. But, Ford was right; you should be able to get any color you want as long as its' black. Storage sizes range from 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16GB. I got the 2 and it's plenty for a couple of my favorite albums or a long playlist. Who needs more? If you're outrunning the capability, it loops and you need a new hobby.

And for the super-techies out there, you can even get these with bluetooth that connects to your phone, so you can multi-task as you run over things and swerve into trees.

Fantastic!
