As we posted back in January, Century Corp Japan announced their Dolphin MP3 Player, a waterproof solution to portable media. The Dolphin looks like some sort of medical equipment you would find in a hospital and connects right onto a pair of goggles. The silicon covered 1GB flash drive comes with waterproof earphones, which we would think would also keep water out of your ears. Never did we think The Beatles’ Octopuses Garden would be so realistic. Pick one up for the yen equivalent of $105. — Andrew Dobrow
