Personal massager for carpal tunnel patients?

I saw this over the weekend and I thought I blogged it here, but now I see that I haven't posted since Friday. Yesterday got so busy that I didn't have time all day and then I was too tired to post at bedtime. Hopefully, you all survived my absence just fine, especially since I couldn't seem to STOP blogging last week. Heh.

Anyway.

The vibrating MP3 player inspired some innuendo in the comments thread at Gizmodo. But one person posted a non-titillating reason to wear such a thing:

This could be of use to people who are partially deaf. Many times, they can hear higher tones, but bass notes escape them unless they're loud enough to feel the vibration.

Which of course got me thinking about the iBuzz/Audi-Oh vibrators that move in response to music. What an interesting way to experience music if you are hearing-impaired.

Better yet, time the "Groove" pattern of the Je Joue to music and you can share your favorite compositions with your deaf lover.

(By the way, I now have a Je Joue of my own. I just need to find an adapter to charge it properly, as it has a UK plug, and then I can let you know with authority if it lives up to my high expectations.)
