iPod Bikini: 2nd Sexiest Bluetooth App Ever
I never imagined I would have the word "bikini" in the the title of a post on this blog, much less in the same sentence with "Bluetooth". However, Korean company JWin has developed a bikini top with Bluetooth controls sewn in to operate an iPod (suitably Bluetooth-equipped of course), allowing the wearer to perform all the usual options, from adjusting the volume to selecting tracks. The ergonomics may not be the best, but the conversational value will likely more than make up for it.
A picture is included in the post, as I thought it best not to leave it to your imagination.

Oh, the #1 sexiest Bluetooth app? Here.
