That there is the SweetPea 3, an MP3 player designed for "ages 0-8." The 256MB capacity isn't huge, but hopefully by age "0" your kid hasn't developed that big of a music library yet.
Only adults can interact with the specially-designed volume control--it's the opposite of Casper, in that respect--and the SweetPea 3 is both Mac and PC compatible, solving at least one potential interfamiy squabble.
What to put on the device? Well, a separate company called RockabyeBabyMusic is doing a brisk business converting the songs of grown-up bands (including Green Day, U2, the Rolling Stones, and Nine Inch Nails) into lullabyes. And if baby-fied Zeppelin or Metallica is more your speed, they've got those too.
Man. Remember when you could keep babies entertained by jangling a shiny set of keys in front of them? Well, welcome to the revolution.
