Underwear for your iPod

It seems like retailers cannot justify creating any new product unless it comes with some sort of special Ipod receptacle. Shirts, jackets, handbags, ties, necklaces -- you name it, they make it to hold your pod. But the one item I never thought I'd see with a pod pouch was underwear. Thanks to the folks at Play, you can now listen to your favorite new Justin Timberlake hit in the comfort of your boxer briefs.

To tell you the truth, I'm torn about these hi-tech man-panties. Part of me says, hey, people do lots of stuff in their underwear, why shouldn't they also to listen to a personal music player? The other part of me thinks that this is the worst idea in the universe.

Given that the iBoxers are now on sale for $16.50, I'm starting to lean more towards the latter.

for when you have the uncontrollable urge to dance around in your drawers??? maybe they should come with a broom and a pair of shades so they wearer can be that much cooler ;)
....just being cheeky i guess

I think this is a great idea! If one is groovin' to one's i-pod tunes in a high crime area, what safer place is there than the underwear??

Is it wrong to want Bono singing that close to your vitals?

I spend a lot of time dancing in my drawers.... Nothing wrong with that... Someone buy me a pair of these for Christmas!

If I were a man, I would buy a pair of these in an instant! Now they need to name some iPanties for us chicks.

wow 16.50 thats a lot of dough and from the picture the ipod takes away from the natural bulge...but on a up beat the Ipod pocket would be a great place to store your condems .....but I still prefer my wallet for that so i will stick my BVD's

Actually, Ralph, I don't think storing your condems [sic] in your wallet is a very good idea -- the heat deteriorates the latex.

Now if you could buy a vibrating IPOD then I would definitely buy these. I mean what could be better than walking through the mall jamming to your music while sporting wood. Think of all the chicks that would see you workin your groove thing and wondering if they can borrow you to pole dance.
