A Credit-Card Size MP3 Player from Walletex

I had to cover this story once I got wind of it! It actually looks like some company called Walletex has actually created a credit-card size MP3 player. If you've never heard of Walletex, they produce these USB Flash Drives that are the size of credit cards. I suppose they would be one of the first companies to produce a credit card size MP3 players!

As you can see from this photo I managed to nab, the device is credit card sized so you can fit it right in your wallet with your MasterCard or Visa! Walletex is boasting that is the world's slimmest MP3 player.

As far as controls go, it looks like all of it is on the front of it with play, rewind, fast forward, volume up, and volume down. I hate to have to say "it looks like", because like many new tech products, they are fueled by rumor. So I might as well make this disclaimer now: I have no idea if this product is true. However, I hope that it is.

The device also boasts that is water proof, dust proof, and temperature resistant. Of course, I am wondering what the limits of that is, because I'm sure that there has got to be some. I mean, can you listen to this thing underwater in the Arctic?

As you can see from the picture, the slim MP3 player has a double-sided USB connector. I have discovered that it works in three ways. First of all, it can communicate to the PC so you can download tunes or other audio files. Second, you can use it to charge, but I'm not certain if you can do it via USB or wall outlet. Third, it serves as the audio jack, so it doesn't look like this slim guy has a separate port for the headphones.

Could this product change MP3 players as we know it? It might change the world of disposable electronics as we know it. Can you imagine that instead of a business giving you a paper card, they give you this MP3 player with their logo and contact information. Apparently, that's what Walletex wants, and the MP3 Player is designed to be customized with any graphics.
