- Despite cursing my earbud cords every day for tangling into un-doable knots no matter how carefully they've been put away and how short a time they've been unused, I've yet to get one of those cable winders, mostly because it's seemed to me that it probably takes as long to wind the cord as it does to untangle it. I'm finding I like this Tunewear Tetran, though, because it looks so ridiculous. The cord winds around the bumpy tentacles and the earbuds can be cased in the tetran's mouth. Wound up, the tetran looks like it's been caught by some alien bass poacher, but is happy as can be about it. Stupid, but happy, I like it. |
