excellent!
I'm sure Hutch will get a kick out of this

"According to Argentinian folklore, the seventh son born to a family turns into the feared ?el lobison?.

The werewolf-like creature shows its true nature on the first Friday after boy?s 13th birthday, the legend says, turning the boy into a demon at midnight during every full moon, doomed to hunt and kill before returning to human form.

As well as feeding on excrement, unbaptized babies, and the flesh of the recently dead, the lobison was said to be unnaturally strong and able to spread its curse with a bite.

Fear of the lobison was so rife in 19th Century Argentina that some families abandoned or even murdered baby boys ? an atrocity that sparked the unusual Presidential practice of adoption, aimed at stopping the deadly stigma.

Starting in 1907, the tradition was formally established by a decree in 1973 by Juan Domingo Peron, which also extended the practice to baby girls."


So nice of Peron to include the girls too!

or you could buy a player with what seems like a better set of specs for about the same price...

That does sound cool especially considering the shape, size and functionality of the Ponos player. 
well now you can purchase PonoFormat with the cost of an album ranging from $17.99 up to $27.49
thanks Neil for giving us perfect music at more than twice the price


Gizmodo's take
The whole idea behind the player is to provide a home for "Pono" files with soaring resolutions, but there's no evidence to suggest that the HD audio files are audibly any different to the sound provided by CDs. But the files are bigger. And, uh, very expensive.

As Neil Young asks: "But can your soul recognize it? That's what I'm talking about. Do you feel this, or is it just wallpaper?" Quite, Neil.
