No, it's not an transcendental iPod. It's an audio player from MegaVoice that's solar-powered. Can store up to 160 hours of audio and costs $25 (ZAR150). It uses a propriety format to compress the audio so you won't be able to play your (mp3) music you downloaded from Napster. This device has been around for about a year now, but it looks like two Adventist Organizations, namely Adventist World Radio (AWR) & It Is Written, have purchased 2000 units to use it to spread the gospel in remote regions of Africa. Hope they can put up with the iffy styling though.
