USB retro wooden speaker escapes the crap pile by the slimmest margin

Try if you wish, but you’ll never convince us that the masterpiece you’re peering at above should be lumped in with every other crapgadget out there. Sorry, it just ain’t happening. The wondrous USB Retro Wooden Speaker / MP3 Player Cube does mostly what it says: you insert a flash card or USB drive, and it plays back MP3 files through the pair of 3-watt stereo speakers. Those vintage buttons can skip tracks and pause things for a brief moment of silence, while the bundled remote keeps your nates planted after a hard day’s night. There’s even a 3.5 millimeter auxiliary input in case you’re short on flash, and the built-in rechargeable battery ensures that this bad boy will be showcased at your forthcoming tailgate parties. There’s a whole lot of awesome here for $29, wouldn’t you concur?
