CES 2008-Belkin Rockstar: Let’s Share!

belkinrockstar_001.jpgHave an iPod will make your daily bored life more colorful. But I think the color will be greater if people around us or our friends also feel our gladness. You can share your gladness with your iPod. Belkin’s RockStar ($20) can allow five pairs of headphones to be connected to a single sound source, or four pairs of headphones to two sound sources.

In the first scenario, five people might listen to one iPod, trading the input plug between their iPods to share songs. In the second, four people might listen as two others “battle” each other, trading off songs to see who comes up with the more crowd-pleasing songs.

Since the RockStar lacks amplification, it will work better with efficient earbud headphones than with big over-the-ear headphones. Also, it’d help to have a high-maximum-output player, with at least 25 mW per channel (Apple, Archos, Creative, and Microsoft are safe bets).

Well, what do you think about this? One hub, which you can plug up to five MP3 players into. You can then choose which of them to listen to, or mix songs from several of them.

It’s aimed squarely at teenagers, who apparently do spend a lot of time in the playground listening to each others’ MP3 players or busy career women. You can mix and fade out tunes between the connected players, using their normal controls.
