Slice those ears off; bone-conduction is here to stay

We all know how much fun piping audio directly into your cranium can be, so it’s with glee that we bring you the news on DoCoMo’s first bone-conduction cellphone earpiece, the beautifully named Sound Leaf.

On sale tomorrow for just over ¥10,000, the Sound Leaf works with FOMA 3G phones, weighs 52g and is ideal for noisy locations where normal human hearing flakes out, such as Pachinko Parlors.
