CES has big, fancy products like the new Palm OS, and then they have stuff like this. In a little pod in the Sands, a Chinese company called SATY is showing this rather blocky music and video player with some unusual features. It's got a flashlight. It's got a radio. It's got a mosquito repeller (which just means it plays a really high-pitched tone, so it's probably also a teenager repeller.) It has a breathalyzer. And if the battery runs down, you can power it by pulling on a string repeatedly.When I asked the guy at the booth why it has a breathalyzer, he looked at me like I was insane and said, "for driving."
Will you ever be able to buy this thing in the US? Would you want to? Who knows? But it's definitely creative.

I think that a built in breathalizer is something that can help them damn drunken drivers stay off the road. Everyone who knows how much they are over the limit can possibly not do all the things they would do when just assuming they are not drunk. Over all i think people need this sort of thing. If it saves a life i'm all for it.
