In the land of the karaoke-obsessed, Japan, there's a karaoke service for cell phones launched last year by Sega called Hitokara (translates to karaoke for one person). The cell phone service started with 35,000 free downloadable songs but that number has since expanded to 43,000. Sega now aims to transcend the service's cell phone karaoke label with an accessory called the Hitokara at Home.

Hitokara at Home is basically a karaoke box with a microphone, built-in speakers, and a disco mirror ball equipped with blinking LED lights for effect. For the hardcore karaoke fans who already got their home theater systems wired for weekend singing fests, this might seem cute but essentially useless. Still, since using it is as easy as connecting a Hitokara-enabled cell phone to it, it's a good alternative to all those already subscribed to the service.
