Unlike a lot of the other tech companies on this list, Macally is still around today, continuing to push out accessories for Apple products. Back in 2006, it had the unhinged idea to create a pair of cordless, over-the-ear headphones that could dock a whole-ass iPod Nano.

With its mTUNE-N2 headset, Macally concluded that the best way to keep your iPod’s click wheel and display within easy reach would be to slap the thing to the side of your skull.

“What happens if it rains?” I hear you ask. “Or a random person swipes it while walking by?” Both excellent questions that I suspect zero people brought up during this eyesore’s development.
