Messenger Bag with External Speakers

While this isn’t the first design of it’s kind, it certainly is sleeker than the backpack models we’ve seen in the past (who wears backpacks anymore). This messenger bag comes with an integrated and easy to use control panel on the strap made of Elektex smart fabric and external speakers presumably loud enough to compensate for the police sirens and the bus whizzing past you on the street.  It is equipped with a 3.5 mm jack that can accommodate just about any audio device you throw at.  Judging by the picture though, it looks a bit small to fit my laptop – might like to see a variety of sizes in the future.  The bag is priced at $130 and should be available this November.

For those of you who didn’t get the bulletin  listening to music too loud can make you deaf.  So maybe  pulling out those ear buds and sharing your music with your fellow commmuters isn’t such a bad idea.  Maybe…
