Can you get a MP3 player in a cassette?
Basically I've had an idea and want to know if it exists.
I want an MP3 player housed in a cassette converter like the one's you used to buy to use a personal CD player in the car, but without a wire
hanging out. I've seen it done with 8 trac, and I'm not sure how you'd control it, maybe put something on the wheel.
Anyone seen anything like this?

Thanks. My Google Fu has been weak today as I couldn't find one.

Please don't use those USB chargers as shown in one of the Amazon links, the build quality of those is quite shocking (quite literally in some
cases).

Wait a minute, you've been looking for a tape player so you can use it with a mp3 tape converter? Why didn't you just get one with mp3
capability? And don't say "for the original look" because I saw some today that have the "crappy" black look and can
take mp3 cds or an sd card

nah, someone else on here was after a cassette deck, though I do prefer having a stereo that actually matches the car. I want a DAB next time I buy a
car stereo I just was curious if the tape things existed, I don't actually have any music on MP3 even.

what a brilliant idea! I'm going to get this. Saves a big hassle with the iPod/FM transmitter thing, and the low fidelity.
