Ugliest MP3 Player EVER.
China is not exactly the design capitol of the world, so If it happens to look decent, they probably ripped it off from someone else. But nothing ever looked quite as ugly as the new "CJ7 Dog Doll MP3 Player with Built-in Speakers". How this can be described as a "cute dog doll outfit" is beyond me as it looks like the result of a Pokemon interacting with radioactive waste.
The thing has 1GB internal memory, built in speaker and charges through USB. The USB port is very conveniently placed in the dog's butt and the headphone jack is located in the front. It might be worth the $18.67 shipped just as a conversational starter, after all how many times have you seen a table with a plastic dog and a USB plug up it's butt playing "I will survive"?

You know if it's really designed to look like a dog, then why didn't they bother to cover the entire thing with fur? At least it'll look (a bit) better.

It's not really a dog but an alien character from a Hong Kong movie (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CJ7)
But that's still no excuse for having the USB plug where it is.

If you watched that movie before, than the placement of the USB port, though not the most correct thing to do, does actually coincide with the movie.

It's like they purposely thought of ways they could get this to make tech news.

Is that a microphone above the USB port?
MrFobber on June 18, 2008 2:57 AM
I believe the player's design is based on Stephen Chow's new movie, "CJ7" I have always suspected that they are going to make somethings from the movie, but I had never expected that they are going to make a MP3 player out of it...
anyways the Wikipedia link for the movie page is here

I don't think thats a mic... I'd say its the reset hole. :D Love the I will survive comment. Keep up the awesome work Enzo.

It's so ugly that it's actually kinda cute... now if it only comes in 8gb...

i love all of these clueless postings including the parent post. the mp3 player is from the movie CJ7. go watch the movie and you will understand what it is and no it isn't a "dog".
ubrikkean on June 18, 2008 10:17 PM
Since it seems that most people don't know from where it is, it will remain ridiculously ugly in our minds, regardless of the source.

You guy's are no fun anymore.

This mp3 player is based on a new film from the creator of Kung-fu Hussle and Shoalin Soccer.
LambdaCalculus379 on June 23, 2008 1:29 PM
This is the silliest looking MP3 player I've ever seen!

Tom.J on July 1, 2008 3:05 AM

ice on July 19, 2008 9:40 AM

claudia on December 27, 2008 12:15 AM
What an strange mp3, i mean that's not a dog, it looks more like gremlin....
Senseless Sensation on February 15, 2009 2:50 AM
I saw Kung-fu Hustle and Shoalin Soccer. Both of which were unbearably stupid. Found it hard to finish watching them... I imagine CJ7 would be no different if it was made by the same idiot.

It reminds me the Halle Berry starrer Catwoman. It am in doubt which is more ugly Catwoman or CatMP3!
