Ubanana Announces Wearable, Waterproof uCan MP3 Player

by Donald Melanson on May 15, 2008 at 12:23 PM

There's certainly no shortage of waterproof gadgets out there for you to take along on your next swimming or diving adventure, but if you still haven't found an MP3 player that meets your needs, you may want to consider Ubanana's new uCan device, which is at least a tad better looking than some of the other wearable options currently available. You'll have to make do with a mere 1 gigabyte of memory, however, but you will get a decent 15 hours of battery life, and you can rest assured that it'll float to the surface for easy retrieval if it slips off while you're plundering the ocean's depths (up to ten feet deep, at least). Look for this one to set you back €99 (or $150), with it set to start shipping in July.

This looks like an excellent product. I do a lot of lengths swimming and have tried a number of waterproof MP3's, all of them disappointing, to releive the boredom of training. This however looks to be in a different class! The name is really catchy too. Can't wait until it comes on to the market.
