What recession? The Sanwa throat microphone should improve call quality (but you'll look odd)

Go ahead, walk around your local mall with this Sanwa throat microphone and see what happens. Created by Japan’s Sanwa, and modeled after similar throat microphones used by elite military forces around the world (supposedly), the mic wraps around your throat and is supposed to improve call clarity.

And it may well do that, but you’ll end up looking like a total creep. Walking past The Gap, yelling at no one in particular, “I don’t care what it takes, you sell those toxic assets!” At best, you’ll look like a fool.

What did you initially think the top photo was? Because my guess would be allowed on regular radio, that for sure. But then I saw the chin and was like, “Ohhh!” True story.
