Unanticipated
Convergence
Takara will start selling a toy car
on June 28 with a built in stereo. Called the M Choro-Q (short for Music

Choro-Q), the mini Volkswagen Beetle will cost about $160. It uses Memory Stick Duo storage and plays the ATRAC3 format. Just two inches long and weighing about an ounce, the
car plays music for about 2.5 hours on a charge, thanks to tiny, built-in lithium-ion batteries. An attachment battery pack gives you 20 hours
(I haven't seen it, but could it come in the shape of a trailer?). You can also plug a CD player into
the car and record directly from the CD. It records at either 66 kbps or 105
kbps, depending on which setting you choose. The M Choro-Q is propelled by pulling it back against the
floor (and thus winding up an internal spring) and letting go. Meanwhile, the company is also "toying," irresponsibly, I might add, with the idea of music players that look like
lighters
and toy
dogs.
