Swissbit SWISSMEMORY s.beat
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "HARDWARE" @ 11:00 AM
"Top of the list of cool products has to be the new s.beat. Building on the success of the SwissMemory Victorinox range of combined Swiss Army Knives and USB memory keys, the s.beat takes this concept to the next logical step – slotting an MP3 player into a Swiss Army knife! The s.beat combines a truly tiny MP3 player with a slightly larger Swiss Army knife, but the whole package still only measures 74 x 22 x 24mm. Like the previous knife models, you get a blade, a pair of scissors and a nail file/screwdriver as well as the MP3 player/memory key."
I've had the same Swiss Army knife for nearly 30 years. It is a great tool. Never once have I wished that it had a built in MP3 player. In fact, mine has gotten wet so often, that even if it had one, it would not work anyway. On the bright side, they had the forethought to make the player removable from the knife so that you can still bring the player on an airplane. Just curious, does anyone use either one of these or one of their knife/memory key combos?
