Well, at least it looks good...

Wonder how long it'll take before they get sued.

I'm not sure if my black friends at the gym would react well if I told them the name of the player if I bought it.

How about a budget Walmart MP3 player called the iTrailertrash?

These are the MP3 players that are endorsed by the LAPD.

TrekStor really outdid themselves with this one. Way to be outright stupid guys. Certainly someone could have picked up on this? They had to have someone who spoke the language and could realize how that sounded. I guess the just wanted to call it the i.beat and this was the black color, but still, someone must have noticed that right?

Actually, they're marketing geniuses.

Think about it; they appeal to the White Power crowd, the people who buy things from T-Shirt Hell, and offend an entire race of people - Which means plenty of viral advertising!

[redshifter]

Whoah, new forum!

 

[SoundGoon]

lol to that and the posts thus far

The name's giggle-worthy, yes, but it is a very sleak-lookng player IMO.
