Personally I WILL DO THIS AT WORK.
But we can't read at work.

The problem I see is hiding the headphones. I just put it in a sweatshirt pocket and run the cord up my sleeve.

Awesomeness! I will keep this in mind

Cool how-to guide, but I think it would be a lot simpler to pair an in-pocket Zune with a pair of IEMs (in-ear monitors) which by their design have you loop the cord behind the ears and away from sight (you can run it under your shirt back). I use clear Westone UM2s, and they fit pretty flush with your ear and are quite stealthy. Westone UM1s are cheaper and would work equally well.

I was going to post a link to a site which shows how the UM1s fit inside the ear, but with a zero post count, I cant

LOVE THE ZUNE IN THE BOOK!

USMCWarrior · 06-07-2008, 01:40 PM

Great trick! I'll definitely use it.

nsachar · 06-16-2008, 04:52 PM

that is hilarious

dabeastofdamusic · 06-22-2008, 08:09 AM

its funny but not useful, i just put my zune in my back pocket to make it look like a wallet, and run headphones up my shirt, or i can put my zune in my regular pocket.

argondey · 06-24-2008, 10:10 PM

could be useful if you were to use it to watch movies while hiding the earphones by running up the shirt. you would want to make the hole horizontal instead of vertical to avoid looking as if you are a moron with a book the wrong way, also, make sure you have the book right side up

iruka · 07-08-2008, 10:40 PM

XDDD this is so funny for some reason but looks like it might work, depending. I'd gladly ruin a book for this any day (no one should really take this seriously xDD)

JaKaTTaK94 · 07-09-2008, 12:25 PM

I've done this before with 'The Secret Garden'. However, my copy basically doesn't look like a proper book. (the cover is all messed up and the corners are torn off and it's just really un-read-able). I don't think I'd use it for my zune in school...but it's still a pretty cool idea. props to the first poster...(i can't remember the name exactly).

And to all you teachers, what are you doing on this territory?...I gotta start monitoring my teachers to make sure they're not using guerilla warfare in the endless student-teacher battle..

woah...weird moment there..

~peace

This is very nice!...It would be fun just to have!

HenryII · 07-13-2008, 02:41 PM

you guys have a really food idea. instead of an xacto knife, use a sheetrock knife. the blade won't bend
