Certainly, Apple got the idea from the Palm platform.

New BudTrap(R) the Simplest and Fastest Way to Manage Headphone Tangles

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/10/09 -- BudTrap International (www.budtrap.com) has announced the introduction of a new, low-cost BudTrap range of headphone cable management products, engineered to trap your earbuds and avoid headphone tangles. At a breakthrough price-point of $2.99 USD, the new design comes in 12 fun colours and makes it easier than ever to manage your earbuds. The new BudTraps are available online and can also be branded, offering companies/groups the opportunity to tap into the 200,000,000* portable media devices sold each year.

Sitting on the headphone jack of popular devices such as iPod®, iPhone®, and Zune®, the patented BudTrap design securely stores your earbuds, tangle-free, on the device when not in use. According to BudTrap this makes it the simplest and most convenient way to eliminate headphone tangles and, at $2.99 USD, the most affordable.

"Whether exercising in the gym, listening to music on the train, or using a wired hands-free device with your phone, BudTrap will save you time and frustration by taking care of those annoying headphone tangles," stated BudTrap Marketing Manager Nick Bonich. "Best of all, it's low cost, super simple and fast; you simply clip it in, wind your headphones around your device and lock off your earbuds."

BudTrap is also offering businesses a unique opportunity to get their brand in the hands of millions of customers each day using the BudTrap product as a low cost, high visibility canvas.

"By branding BudTraps, you're putting your brand exactly where it needs to be, front and center and in your customers' hands," stated BudTrap founder David Cross.

"Consumers are using their iPods® and phones multiple times every day. Now marketers can leverage this highly visible platform as a canvas to broadcast their message. It's a great alternative to branded shirts, caps, pens, etc., BudTrap is low cost and can help drive improved marketing ROI."

BudTraps work with most portable device/headphone combinations and are available from www.budtrap.com.

Born on the beaches of Sydney, Australia in 2008, BudTrap International P/L creates unique, innovative products for portable media devices that double as branding/marketing platforms.
