The force is not strong with this one

I have something to admit to all of you. I’m a Star Wars geek. There, I said it. Now that I’ve gotten that off of my chest I’ve finally found an excuse to walk around all day with a lightsaber attached to my belt all day. I’m talking about a combination lightsaber and mp3 player. Ok, maybe it would be just a little much even for me to walk around with this on my hip all day.

At the time of writing, I’m not sure that this is an actual product. But the prospect of such a product was too good not to write about. Honestly, it wouldn’t surprise me if George Lucas were to put his stamp of approval on it. Seriously, the man thought Jar Jar Binks was a great idea.
