Crosley Radio: Revolution CR6002 a few decades too late to the game

Portable media players have been around for a fair number of years already, where they’re more or less epitomized by the Apple iPod family. Well, how about this? The Crosley Radio: Revolution CR6002 that will definitely turn heads, even though it relies on audio technology that are decades old. We’re talking about a portable two-speed turntable which can spin your vinyl records for hours on end, where this battery-powered compact turntable can handle 33 1/3 and 45 RPM records on the go. Not only that, you will also be able to get a taste of 21st century technology (20th century, actually) with an integrated FM transmitter which enables you to play your favorite tunes via a superior sound system. Of course, if you prefer more privacy, then a pair of headphones would do just as well. A USB socket ensures you can perform analog-to-digital transfer for both PC and Mac platforms. It will come in mint, ivory and red shades for $149.95 a pop.
