i kinda don't think it's nuts-- i've seen a million 'crib cd players' so what's the difference--my daughter loves 'real' music-- and i think it's b/c i've exposed her to so much of it--
she's never had the 'wiggles' or 'barney' in the car, and i'm proud of that.

Hooking onto the edge of Junior's crib, the iCrib will brainwash your newborn with whatever music you want, turning itself off after a specified time if you're using <I>Master of Puppets</I> as a lullabye. It also can do a little light show to keep the kid engaged visually while his tender little eardrums are damaged before he has a chance to damage them himself. It's the perfect first step to getting your kid a wallet-emptying gadget addiction, and will lead nicely into his master of the <A href="http://blog.scifi.com/tech/archives/2006/04/11/babys_first_mp3.html">iTod</A> before he finally graduates to whatever fancy video version of the <A href="http://blog.scifi.com/tech/archives/2006/09/12/apple_upgrades_1.html">iPod</A> is out by the time he hits six or seven years old. The iCrib is available now for $30.
