When the Japanese make gadgets, they sure know what gadgets will bring in the Yen.
Introducing the portable karaoke machine, the Hi-Kara measures a diminutive 2.75-inch cube with a 2.4-inch screen and will pack in 10 downloaded songs per cartridge, while the microphone-headset lets you sing and listen to songs without any bloodshed from anyone having to listen to your rendition of Frank Sinatra’s undying My Way. Unfortunately, the Hi-Kara will only be available by October and still in Japanese, but we’ll give a few months ‘til the US starts releasing its own version then maybe we’ll start seeing the end of the iPod’s reign.
