Tired of carrying that MP3 player and Taser around with you?

Your prayers have been answered. You can have both devices in one handy package!

Bit Player : Los Angeles Times : CES Video: Gadget of the day

You know what a bother it is to carry both your MP3 music player and your Taser gun?

Worry no more
.
Today at CES, Taser International introduced the Taser MPH -- the first combination hand-held music player and Taser.

The player, which has a 1-GB capacity that can hold about 150 songs, is embedded in a holster that slips on your belt. Feel the need to zap someone and you can unholster the Taser, use the built-in laser pointer to aim, and blam -- a couple of darts carrying 50,000 volts hits your victim.
And you don't have to miss a beat.

The Taser MPH is not just a gadget, it's a fashion statement. The company is releasing it in several cover motifs, including leopard.
"It's fashion, with a bite," said Taser International spokesman Stephen Tuttle.
What's next: The iPod gun, Blackberry Nunchucks, RAZR Razor?
-- David Colker

Finally, something to use when the nasty men from the RIAA come around.

I wonder if the tazing makes the song skip or anything, that would suck.

"tech support, how may I help?
"yeah, every time I hit 'play' I get this intense pain in my ears."
"sir, are you sure you're putting the buds in your ears and not the darts?"

haha wow, that made me laugh way harder than it should have.

that just sounds dangerous! What are the safety features? And why on earth did someone think this was marketable... or maybe i'm wrong and everyone will have one in the next 2 years
