The MP3 player with magic hands

iGoGo.jpg

We all know about wearing a music player to the gym, but the spa? OSIM's iGoGo would be right at home there, though, since it brings a new innovation to the MP3-player bag of tricks: massage. Yep, with the two remote massagers adhered to your body (thanks to the included gel pads), the iGoGo can give you one of the seven different kinds of preprogrammed massage, synchronized to your music. The pads are wireless, communicating with the player via RF technology, so no worries about getting tangled in some very unrelaxing wires. Just two pads come in the package, but the player can control up to four. The built-in memory is sadly a miniscule 128 MB, but you can expand it with a little flash if you want. Even worse, however, is the jaw-dropping price: about $500 U.S. For that much coin, it had better put Karl down at the Equinox spa to shame. And somehow, I doubt MP3/massage technology has advanced that much — even in Singapore, where you'll have to order this baby from. If you're still determined to experience some magic hands synced to compressed music, let us know how it is, 'kay?
