CeBIT ’06: Brainic VW-500 Vibrating MP3 Player

Another item in the “Huh” category. This thing is a haptic MP3 player that vibrates in time to your music. Hot little OLED display and up to 1GB storage are nice, and this thing is tiny. Why a vibrating MP3 player, you ask? Who knows. Let’s just assume that this thing doesn’t necessarily have to…
