MP3 Player Lives In Your Ear, Controlled With Your Teeth

• popsci.com
 Say goodbye to getting wrapped up in miles of cord connecting your MP3 player to your headphones as you listen to music. These little earphones, named Split, make up a completely wire-free music player in their own right. Though only in the prototype stage, it's designed to have 256 megabytes of memory and can be controlled through a simple click of the jaws. Split's creators are looking for $435,000 in Kickstarter funds to work out the last kinks in manufacturing and design and get them nestled in your ears.
 
Here are the basics: The magnetic earphones turn on when you split them apart. Since there is no cord to connect the two earbuds, they're essentially two MP3 players that play your music at the same time, synchronized by radio waves.
