Car MP3 Stand Alone Cassette Shaped Player Turns Your Car Cassette into MP3 Device [SD Card Based MP3 Player]

This Car MP3 Stand Alone Cassette Shaped Player will appeal to those either wishing to own a distinctly retro styled MP3 player or those looking for a way of making their car’s cassette player, should you still be packing one, into an MP3 compatible device.

The MP3 player itself comes without any internal storage capacity of its own, so relies on SD memory cards, offing up to 2GB, to store your music but will work as a completely stand alone device, complete with headphone socket, as well simply slotting into your car’s cassette deck (or any other cassette deck, for that matter) – at which point you merely need to press ‘play’ to unleash your digital music collection via yesterday’s technology.

Car MP3 Stand Alone Cassette Shaped Player Features:

The Stand Alone or Car Cassette MP3 Player, to give this gadget its rather uninventive official title, retails for around $40.
