Barbie Girl MP3 player
Sunday, 9 November 2008
The Barbie Girl MP3 player is not just for girls to listen to their music but is also a "key" to access Mattel Inc's Barbiegirl.com website.
When the 11cm tall device is plugged into an Internet-capable PC, the girls can log into the site where they can play games, chat and shop with their friends. They can also adopt virtual pets such as dog, cat, bunny or monkey.
To buy stuff at the site's online mall, the girls will need to play the online games to earn "B Bucks," the currency at Barbiegirl.com.
As an MP3 player, the device can store up to 120 MP3 songs or up to 240 WMA-format songs in its 512MB memory.
Mattel says that girls can also play dress-up with the device, as they would with a Barbie doll, when they get tired off going online.Two sets of interchangeable fashion outfits are included.
The Barbie Girl MP3 player will be available in the United States in July, priced at US$59.99.
