Oakley THUMP 256MB MP3 Player Sunglasses
April 30th, 2005
Too much hassle carrying that iPod around with you? Convergence devices your thing? Take a look at the Oakley THUMP 256MB MP3 Player Sunglasses.
Bona Fide Reviews has taken a closer look at a pair and seems to think that they are the real deal, saying that “the glasses are comfortable, the ear buds sound great, and the player is generally extremely simple to use.”
We think that they look a little too….much, coming from the school of thought that sunglasses shouldn’t look like an alien facehugger attached to the side of your head. We’re especially put off by the $499 price tag for a 256Mb version.
Technical features include 256 MB NAND flash memory (a 128MB model is available too), -85.058 dB signal-to-noise ratio, dual automatic EQ with static and noise correction, an audio range of 20 Hz - 20,000 Hz, highly adjustable ear buds, USB rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery with up to 6 hours of playback time, USB 2.0 connectivity, MP3 / WMA / WMA with DRM / WAV audio file support, sequential and random playback, power save mode, and total weight of 52 grams (1.8 oz).
The sunglasses themselves have distortion-free vision at all angles of view, Oakley Plutonite lens material that blocks 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light, and impact resistance that exceeds ANSI Z87.1-2003 requirements.
