And today the company announced the HA-FX700 [JP], earphones partly made of wood. And we have the same things coming with it again: JVC promising high sound quality and a relatively high price.

Posted on November 11, 2009 | No CommentsSome Japanese gadget freaks do have a penchant for weird earphones, that's for sure, meaning these things actually seem to sell. I doubt that otherwise, Tokyo-based accessory maker Greenhouse would have updated the buta (piggy) earphones they gave us in June 2008. It's not a technical update but the same earphones are available in purple and orange now (see the picture above).

Thanko strikes again: Catgirl Earphones
Posted on August 7, 2009 | No Comments
Tokyo-based crap gadget specialist Thanko is usually known for selling USB stuff nobody needs. Their newest hit product doesn't feature a USB port, but the target group for their Catgirl Earphones [JP] should be quite small, too.
