Colossal MP3 Player Spotted at Walgreens!

Need a GIANT MP3 player? Spotted in the aisles of Walgreens, a $22 dollar MP3 player — the size of your head! Walgreens and their genius digital music player manufacturer have apparently glossed over the fact that iPod's success came largely from its convenient small size to bring you the Colossal 256MB mp3 player! Who cares if you don't own any bags big enough to fit it. It's COLOSSAL!

Who knows what they were thinking with this thing — it has just 256MB and requires 2 AA batteries, and the packaging gives away no sense of irony whatsoever.

Don't bother checking online for this bad boy — I could only find it in person at a downtown San Francisco store. I have half a mind to go back to that Walgreens and buy it, just so I can wear it around town as a social experiment. And it's pink, because, you know, a white one just isn't attention-catching enough!
