It will get glued to my hand as if it has always been a part of my hand after awhile!! hehe!

I choose an MP3 player simply because I could get my hands on some as well as felt it was simple enough for me to use as start point as one can't design in vacuum. Furthermore I also saw it as a challenge to see how much different can I make this MP3, as rightly pointed out by you, when there are already so many out there. I will eventually take what I learn here and look at working similarly on other electronics products in the future. Hi all and thanks for your wonderful feedback and comments.

Maybe because it looks like my padlock. With the crazy amount of players in the market now, i can't see any good reason to do another one here. Am i the only one who thinks the wave one looks bad?

Also makes me think of Timo Wong's Cell Phone (http://timowong.com/). I suppose wavy surfaces on electronic products are really rather seductive!

I've been following the wood version for so long. Very unique. yeah, the wavy concept totally takes me by surprise, Brian. I’ve been following the wood version for so long. Very unique.
