Bamboo Speakers

You know we have a little thing for the bamboo here at the Labs, so these portable bamboo speakers on I4U caught our attention. Called the Bird-Electron EZ-TAKEGTF2, they are made from a special type of Japanese bamboo called SuSu which is smoked and aged for up to 100 years. I guess you pay for the century’s worth of aging, as these babies will set you back 200 bones. Um, do you have something in a decade-old bamboo? (Actually,they do have a “black bamboo” set for US$170). Doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to make your own.
