Internal Mono(b)log

Yesterday Finis officially announced their newest underwater MP3 player: the Neptune

Neptune is a waterproof MP3 player that provides the highest quality sound in the water without the use of ear buds. Neptune uses revolutionary Bone Conduction audio transmission to transmit crystal clear audio through the cheekbone directly into the inner ear.

My player is through customs and should be here shortly for evaluation and my review.  Stay tuned for updates.

The Neptune definitely addresses one of my (very minor) irritations with the SwiMP3: no way to select tracks/playlists.  It also appears to have potentially addressed some of the fragility around the wire connections to the earpieces.  From the literature it looks like Finis may have revised/improved upon the bone conduction speakers as well.  These and other questions will be answered soon 🙂

For now: Just Keep Swimming… Just Keep Swimming… 😛
