|
Sony makes such a line of products.
|
|
|
|
My father was legendary for his abilty to break things. His 'thumbs of death'
|
|
would rival anything a toddler could do to devices. After countless numbers of
|
|
Walkman devices having their lids broken or buttons pressed into oblivion I
|
|
found the Sony devices. I got him a "My First Sony" (be afraid of the
|
|
marketing) CD player. It was /fire engine red/ but was completely
|
|
indestructible. I hacked a headphone jack into it and gave it to him. He
|
|
complained of it's looks but used it nonetheless. I also gave him a pack of
|
|
headphones as there's no such things indestuctible headphones that aren't
|
|
obscenely bulky.
|
|
|
|
Now that we're riding up the curve of an ever increasing geezer population, how
|
|
soon before device makers get wise? Not to be morbid, but would the marketing
|
|
be "My Last Sony"? <ducks and runs>
