Is This the Worst Gadget of the Year So Far?

There's still over four and a half months left in 2012, but Brando's new Retro Mobile MP3 Player could very well have already clinched the title of the year's worst gadget. It's a crappy AM/FM radio and MP3 player whose only redeeming feature is that it's shaped like a retro cellphone.

But of course that's barely redeeming at all, and barely even a novelty, since that old mobile form factor is already a distant memory. Who would spend $20 on this? Who would spend $2 on this!? It's hard to think that a crappier piece of tech could pop up this year—what do you think?
