JVC Floating Digital AudioWe have come across all sorts of mp3 players. Not once did we see an mp3 player that floats on water!

The mp3 player is waterproof and capable of floating on the water, it's like a rubber ducky that can sing your favorite melodies.

The water resistance rates match the Japanese Standard, giving this player a limit of about 30 minutes under the water with a maximum depth of 1 meter.

The files are transferred via USB - just make sure you get it out of the water before you attach it to your computer.
This player is powered with 4AA batteries which do not cause any harm, meaning that there is no way you will die of electrocution while this thing is floating in the water.

Wouldn't it be cool to put one of these in your pool, on a hot summer day?

256MB memory, plays MP3 and WMA

Sony rocks your body with these wireless headphonesThese days everything is wireless, from your internet connection to a cleaning robot. Sony has come up with a way to transmit sound from your favorite mp3 player (sony's mp3 players?) to your ear buds without the use of a wire.

Sony wants to use the body to transmit the sound. The human body communication system and communication device uses an electric field, which sends audio signals through your body to your ears (which is supposed to be harmless for the health of your body).

For the time being, bandwidth limitation prevents anything higher than 48 kbps ATRAC3-plus audio signals from being transmitted.
