Subject: Bone-phones
Written By: verukasalt on 01/20/08 at 10:20 pm
So I was puttering around on google looking for something on a cool item I once had when I was a kid. When I googled bone phones it directed me to this site where there was a chat about this very item. It was really old (2002 and2003) but I am wondering if there is anyone out there who knows where I might get my hands on one of these little guys????

No it was a cool little stereo type thing that you draped around your neck. It vibrated through your colar bone creating a stereo effect that only you could hear. It came out around the same time the walkman did and never really took off.

I vaguely remember something like that from the early or mid 80's. What I remember was about two feet long and covered with bright blue fabric. I never had one but thought it was a cool idea.
Maybe ping the 80's board on this one...
