LG Announces Beetle-inspired MP3 Player
"I’ve always wanted to play the Beatles on a Beetle"
That’s probably one of the worst punch lines I’ve ever come up with, but you can’t help but think that after Korean Electronics giant LG Electronics gave a preview of their latest MP3 player, called the &FM37 which was inspired by the Volkswagen Beetle during this year’s Seoul Motor Show.
The Motor Show also featured other collaborations between the Auto and Electronic companies. So far, the &FM37 gives consumers the choice between 2GB and 4GB incarnations and can play a lot of audio formats like MP3, OGG and even WMV 9 files. It’s also a mini movie player with 2.6-inch LCD screen and comes ready with 2 flash games, it’s not yet known if you can add more however. The player also comes in the same colors of the VW New Beetle, Salsa Red, Shadow Blue and Sunflower Yellow.
The big question is whether or not the &FM37 will even be seen outside of Korean shores. There some speculation that it might just come with a newly purchased New Beetle, but details are still sketchy and the public will just have to wait until the official release date to find out.
