For US$99, you can now get your very own PEZ-based MP3 player. This device was the brainchild of Pat Misterovich, a “stay-at-home dad” who simply willed this thing into existence.
“Last summer I had this thought, “Wouldn’t it be cool if there was an MP3 player that looked like a PEZ dispenser?” You see, I had been reading this article about a guy who had turned an Altoids tin into iPod speakers. Out of curiousity I thought I would ask PEZ if they might be willing to license their brand for such a thing. To my astonishment they didn’t think I was crazy.”
