Hideoto lets us relive our inner kiddy spirit with Tec

Now why would we wanna fiddle around with cassette players when we now have the awesome and revolutionary iPod? Clear this new produc from Hideoto is for those 80s and 90s kids, like me.

This new cassette player called Tec is a Walkman-esque portable cassette player with integrated mini USB port to power up the classic device, or typical AA batteries. There’s also the inclusion of Cassette Mate software for Windows, which presumably makes saving your audio to MP3, WAV, or WMA a figurative snap. Its gonna launch next month in Japan for $57, so if you would like to relive the awestruck feelings.
