Beloved Austin Treasure THUMPed

Holy crap I'll wear whatever Lance Armstrong wears, he's the king of Austin. If you can tear your eyes away from Lance, check out his shades -- Oakley Thump -- a new invention from Oakley. They've taken the music out of the iPod and squished it into flash memory in the frames of a pair of sunglasses. Something tells me you will not be able to find these for 3 bucks across the Mexican border...Despite the fact that 99% of the population does not look like the sunglass models on Oakley website (check out their promo shots) -- they seem pretty cool. There's a high-speed USB connection to upload music one side and the volume controls, next/prev buttons are all on the other sunglass 'stem'. I have to wonder how heavy these get after very long, but I'm sure it be fun joggin with these on. Software is supported on both the PC and the Mac.
