 Think Geek, purveyor of nerdwear and gimmicks, has a history of April Fool gags turning into good business. Last year it was the 8-bit Tie, which was originally a joke product but saw such demand from readers that Think Geek put it into production. This year, the bogus apparel was the Personal Soundtrack T-Shirt, a T-shirt with an embedded speaker which would play sound effects to brighten up your dull, dull life.
Again, readers demanded that Think Geek make it real: The Personal Soundtrack T-Shirt was originally an April Fool's Prank... but due to overwhelming positive response and hundreds of e-mails screaming to "make the damn shirt already" we're putting this item in to production ASAP. We can't help but notice that this is the exact opposite of the prank pulled last week by AbleComm, who put out a fake press release two days late and then chickened out of the consequences.
