CES 2009: iCheck Plays MP3, Detects Alcohol and Bad Breath

Drunk dialing and texting I understand, but I hadn’t heard anything about an apparent outbreak of drunk music-listening. That said, who wouldn’t want a breathalizer built into their portable media player? Sascha found one yesterday–and I came across this one today. Trend alert!

From Korean company Seju, the iCheck is a “smelling” MP4 player. Measuring 5.6-mm thick (“the best slim size,” says the company), this device has most of the standard Flash player features: a 1.5-inch color screen, 4GB of memory, and a high-speed USB port that works with both Windows and Mac.

The iCheck also features a built-in breathalizer and a bad breath detector. Unfortunately, the thing won’t actually stop you from listening to terrible music while drunk. Hopefully we’ll see that functionality in the next version.
