Wow. I've seen it all now. As y'all know 50 cent has his own clothing line for men and women, his own sneakers, his own videogame, and own movie. Well what's next!?.........MP3 WATCHES!!

The rap star 50 Cent is branching out into the listening end of the music business, lending the name of his G-Unit rap group and record label to a wristwatch with an MP3 player tucked inside.

The G-Unit MP3 Watch, due out in jewelry stores this month, packs 256 or 512 megabytes of memory inside its stainless-steel case. It comes with its own earbud headphones with retractable cords and a power adapter for charging it up between wearings.

The 512-megabyte model can hold up to 16 hours of music, and a version of the watch planned for this fall will double that. The watch has buttons around the edge of the face to control play, fast-forward and rewind, plus an equalizer. A discreet U.S.B. port allows the watch to be connected to a computer for loading music files. Prices start at $486 for the smallest-capacity watch. But compared with the $3,500 model at the top of the G-Unit watch line, which is diamond-coated but MP3-less, they are a lot more practical for that gym workout.

im sure the version of the watch that has the diamonds coated on it will look much better... well what do y'all think. good idea?....bad idea?..... stupid idea?....... something you'd buy?....somethin u wouldn't buy?..... give your comments
