Get Your Hands on a Titi
To be filed under "WTF were they thinking!?", Floral Mobile either didn’t bother to do any investigation before coming up with a moniker for their latest portable audio player, or they just don’t care about international colloquialisms. Either way, this had to be done. *Ahem*… Floral Mobile recently launched the Titi in the Korean market. Perfect for teenagers and even young adults, the Titi is a compact portable audio player similar in design to the iPod Shuffle. It can be clipped comfortably to just about any article of clothing so that it is always accessible and ready for use. The Titi is great for just about any leisure situation and it’s perfect for working out as well. Extremely compact and feather-light at only 10g, Titis will hardly get in the way during a jog or light weight training. Titis also come in a variety of colors to suit any taste. The best thing about a Titi? It’s cheap! The 1GB model is available for approximately US$41 which is just over half the cost of a 1GB Shuffle. It is unclear whether or not Floral Mobile has bigger Titis available but 1GB of storage should do the trick for light casual use. We can only hope that Floral Mobile decides to grace other markets with its Titis because we’re certain they would be a hit in the US.

so many jokes with this one.
But really, this goes both ways. The US makes products with names that are funny / inappropriate to other nationalities as well.
funny anyways though. (maybe junior high humor though)

One of my readers pointed out that titi means penis in Tagalog (Filipino), making it extra special…

Clueless Techno-Geek: Heyyyy, that’s a nice Titi!
Woman: Ummmm, there are two. Jerk!
Clueless Techno-Geek: (to self) Wow, never got that response for complimenting a woman on a gadget before. Wonder where she had the other one?
Woman: (to self) Oh my God! I forgot I have this thing clipped to my top!
Ok, it’s early….I tried. Lol.

For a second I wondered what was the product when I looked at the picture with the model and though,”..so much for product advertisement, at least wear a bikini.”
Zach you sure topped my list for hilarious BGR posts this year!

I’m sure it’s just a matter of time before bigger Titis are developed.

Gal,
You’ve thusly brought laughter upon my life since the last time I saw the “ibeatblaxx” (right clicked and the FireFox dictionary came up with unbeatableblaxx, odd, is FireFox racist? Who knows!!) title on BGR.
Good times, good times.
I’m gonna go with Radio on this one. They’re always small in Korea, although I’ve never seen a Filipino penis…but I don’t really want to…I’d rather go with the small Titis in Korea anyway…

Of all the names in the world, they had to name it after the Filipino’s genitals. The biggest ones in the world.
Anyway. Cool gadget. I’d love to get one.
