Nokia's stance on portable music is transparently obvious

The clear portable sound box from Nokia

A man walks into the doctors entirely wrapped in clingfilm. He says to the doctor, ''I think I'm going crazy, could it be true?'' The doctor takes one look at him and replies ''yes, I can clearly see you're nuts.''

Obviously thats a joke that works better out loud than on the screen, but its the first thing I thought of on seeing Nokias transparent ghettoblaster - a simple perspex box with stereo speakers, a strap and shelf for your Nokia XpressMusic phone. Theyd like you to think that its the perfect accessory to take out into the park and broadcast your taste in music with, but I cant help but see it as another case of the Emperors new clothes.
