Listen to your iPod shuffle, via your bones?

Thanko VONIAThe VONIA headband, made for the iPod shuffle and other small Mp3 players, is a headband with a twist. VONIA doesn’t play your music via headphones, it plays it via bone conduction. The headband sends pulses through your skull which result in you being able to listen to your music while still having the ability to hear what’s going on in the world around you. This is great for athlete who must hear pedestrians, traffic, and fellow training partners while on a run. It also works in the water for all you swimmers out there (though we recommend getting a waterproof case for your MP3 player).

The VONIA should be available from the online retailer by the end of March for $84. Exports to the US haven’t been confirmed.
