Vinyl Richie

It looks like a giant stapler, but it's a record player. A portable, wireless, battery-operated $79.95 record player. The Crosley Revolution USB turntable is an able sidekick to the lonely vinyl aficionado's pilgrimage to a record swap in San Francisco. And on the ride home on Megabus, he'll plug in headphones to listen to the Lionel Richie record he scored, and the sight of a vinyl disc rotating in a giant stapler will blow the minds of the other bus riders. At home, he'll connect the turntable to his computer and digitize the sweet songs to send to a babe, so he doesn't have to be lonely anymore. www.crosleyradio.com/turntables.
