It’s not often I get to see a product that claims to turn your kettle, bag, PC monitor or anything else into an MP3 player. That’s the claim behind the AllTunes MP3 Knob and, as you see, the product description is bang on the money.

This knob – which is actually the player – is designed to attach to anything that’s nearby. The screen has been removed because of its ‘uselessness’ and replaced by the ability of the player to read out the song listings as you browse. Is this more than a player with a magnet – you tell me. This is what the blurb behind it says:

Press the central button to play or pause/stop playback. Turn the inner knob to adjust the volume. The outer knob is for smart listing. In listing mode the player pronounces by numbers all songs of the current album, then all albums, in pause mode - the name of the album. At the bottom of the device you will find Lock
button and Repeat all\Shuffle switch.

I can't say I fully understand it all but you can confuse yourself here.-Martin Lynch
