A pretty useful, but useless idea.

I'm sure this would only ever be for sunbathing, but I also highly doubt it would ever go into mass production like the Scottevest products in which some can have solar charging

When I was in Turkey last year, I saw so many people with iPods in their ears whilst sunbathing. This would be great for them.

EDIT: I just realised I've made it past 500 posts!!!!!!!!!

looks impractical for swimming - I have a more pragmatic (read: cynical) application: death row inmates could wear those
a) it looks humiliating
b) they spend too much time in the sun, absconding...they get sizzled...
easy on the tax-payer and the environment!!!!
oh, what's wrong with me today??? [addsig]

With Ericsson and Nokia gone: we must keep their spirits alive and buy JOLLA or YOTA

That bikini looks like it held together with sellotape...

Love those Scottevests! Gotta get me one of those.

looks like the "woman" in the picture is a model, not a real woman. i wonder why.... it's too dangerous?

how does the model for men looks like?
