Once again, Apple has blown us all away with its relentless flood of gadgetry, as a new patent has emerged.

It’s about what you’d get if you managed to combine an iPod Shuffle with a Bluetooth headset, and what it’s being called right now is a headset MP3 player.

You can see one of the patent design figures at left, but where this is amazing is that it can function on its own.  Yes, it functions as a wireless headset to a device it’s linked to, like a Bluetooth, but it also has the capability of storing its own MP3s within the headset itself.  And, as if that weren’t enough, your headset could also become a recording device at the touch of a button, allowing you to make your own MP3s of conversations you’re having.

These are all still somewhat speculative points, being as it’s still in the patent stages, but it’ll likely be another market-buster when it comes out.

There has been countless times when I have been “noodling” on my guitar, yah know, playing but not really paying attention, and I write a stellar riff. And many times that moment has come and gone, and I don’t even remember how to play it, but I know it was cool. No more was. Line 6 addresses all of the scatterbrained ADD fools like me through the release of the Back Track, and the Back Track Mic. Dubbed as “Inspiration Insurance” the Back Track is “Always On” for use up to 24 hours a day, which sets it apart from any other pocket recorder with a mic, cuz you don’t have to futz with a record button. Just turn it on at the beginning of your jam, and the Back Track only records when it detects an incoming signal via 1/4 input or a condenser mic. If you end up writing a ballsy riff, just tap the “Mark” button and the riff is remembered. At the end of the day you can recharge the battery through a USB port, as well as transfer any “Marked” riffs Wav. file style. Sounds killer. It also sounds like it might be useful for comedian or hip-hop heads that are well spoken, and want to capture their verbalisms throughout the day.

Priced at $99 and $149. Check it out here.
