    Reminds me of the picture of the dude that had used a rubber band to strap his cell phone to his head – yessir! Hands free!

    Who says he’s poor? He’s rich in imagination.

    This is misleading. It should be called “Poorman’s Headphones.”

    This is old, I’ve seen it a lot of years ago and this is the full version of it:

    So it’s a radio strapped to his head?
    and buffered by a sponge of some sort…

    I never thought the image needed more explanation than what it is: obviously it’s a Chinese guy that turned his portable radio into a hands-free unit using some sponge, rubber band, and bent wire.

    Oh, he’s reading a newspaper posted on a wall (common in rural China).

    Gotta admire the ingenuity. :)

    Why is it obviously a Chinese guy?

    Neal – well, it’s not that obvious I guess, unless you’ve been to (non-Beijing/Shanghai) China (I have) – the jacket and hat are classic Chinese old guy. Plus, “someone”‘s post the classico.it link with a side profile. :)
