CES 2012: AfterShokz ear phones that do not go into the ear

[Getting a TON of news from CES this year. Very rarely is something somewhat relevant. Here is one of the ‘somewhat cool but still not exactly relevant’s]

“AfterShokz is a brand new company on a mission to change the way the world listens to music on the go — with ear-free headphones that transport sound through your cheekbones. They’ve used patent pending bone conduction technology (initially developed for military special ops) to create the ultimate sports, mobile and gaming headphones. Benefits for users range from basic comfort, to long-term eardrum health, to increased safety during activity. This technologically-advanced product line will be available to the masses at everyday price points in time for CES — innovation yet to be matched. The flagship product (Sport) is currently one of the most popular semifinalists in the Last Gadget Standing competition: http://bit.ly/tLkmxA. “
