Tokyo (NBp) - Japanese consumer electronics giant Sony has just announced the BurgerMan, the world's first electronic burger.

"BurgerMan features the most advances in burger technology since the invention of the burger itself," announced Sony chairman Yamikoto. "For the first time, people can browse through photos of their loved ones as they enjoy their burgers."

Liquid Crystal Displays in the burger patties tell cooks when the patty has been cooked to the customer's satisfaction.

Sony touts the BurgerMan's SuperSense patties as a safety feature. Given the recent fears over e.Coli bacteria, no burger should be eaten until the SuperSense patty display shows "5".

In addition to the picture display and SuperSense features, the BurgerMan's SmartMedia Cheese can be used to play back near CD-quality music. The current model of BurgerMan includes two pieces of SmartMedia Cheese, for up to 8 minutes of music. The music can be conveniently heard in Sony's new "EarSpuds" headphones/french fries.
