Skullcandy

On Thursday I chilled at the Skullcandy CES booth, and despite the fact that they had one of the coolest booth during the show, they also had various items on display: From headphones, to backpacks, to audio-enabled lifestyle products. What makes Skullcandy products stand out is their “punk rock” approach to technology: unique designs, skull heads and their LINK system which allows users to listen to music from portable audio players and at the same time send and receive calls through a Skullcandy stereo headset. When you receive a call the phone rings on top of the music. Link comes with a Bluetooth set up and is integrated into several Skullcandy products including Giro helmets and recently into backpacks.
