An MP3 Player Even A Squirrel Would Love

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Music, Portable Audio / Video, USB,

Acorn MP3 PlayerDonya has cleverly created an MP3 player inside a wooden acorn. It runs on batteries and is a size of only 35mm high with a small lanyard.  With a 1GB memory capacity, it will play MP3, WMA, and OGG files. Play time is about 3 hours and it takes approximately 4 for a recharge. Volume and selection are on the top, while an earphone jack is on the bottom of the player, which automatically turns it on when you plug in and off when you unplug. Attached to your USB port, it will download and recharge. The Acorn Player is available for 6,999 Yen (~$65.00.)

Settings include tempo guide, song transition, and bass boost. It also doubles as a basic MP3 player with heart rate monitor. Expect the Bodibeat’s debut in the 3rd Quarter.

I-Jerry Makes Music Sitting Down

i-JerryMade by I-Mu, I-Jerry is a rodent-like MP3 Player with 1 GB memory. Control him by the ear, and get ready for his bottom which, when placed on a surface, turns it into a speaker. The company also features an i-Pig, an i-Bird, and a basic design that does the same thing, but we have to admit we are partial to the mouse. Visit the i-Mu site and find out there is more to music than sound, it’s a philosophy. Expect an arrival later this year at a $99.00 price.

Share a Hub, Become a RockStar

RockStarBelkin’s RockStar is a mini-jack hub that has six ports, one in and five out to split music between friends and their headphones. (We won’t tell if you take one to work and divvy up the ports between cubicles.) The 5 outputs can also be configured to be ingoing, too, so that you and your buds can mix and match music. The RockStar will work with iPhones, all models of iPods, and other MP3 players, and will be available from Belkin and various retailers this March for $20.00.
