skull Skullcandy releases wood grain earbuds

For some reason the electronics world loves covering things in wood. Wooden televisions, wooden VCRs, wooden iPhone covers….now Skullcandy has created wooden earbuds. The wood grain earphones cost a whopping $99 (pretty steep for a pair of Skullcandy’s…BUT despite their typical small price these are some fantastic earphones). The phones work with all your favorite music apparatuses. Since Skullcandy’s typically go for around $20, you’re looking at a four or five times markup for the grain exterior however….that’s pretty astronomical, even though they look pretty cool. What electronics do you own that’s wood grain? Do you think the trend is going to continue? [via BoingBoing]
