You Share, I Share with miShare

miShare

Although sharing music is far easier than it was a decade ago, we the people aren’t satisfied yet, and continue to make the act of sharing more convenient, pesky cables be damned.

miShare hopes to help hapless travelers with a more intuitive way to share music, without the need of a computer. Skipping the middleman, the gadget allows two iPods to connect directly to the unit, allowing one ‘Pod to share playlists with the other. You set up an “On the Go” playlist with the files you want to share, press the single button on the device and presto – instant swap meet. On average, miShare transfers at 500kb a second, or 10 seconds per song.

Before all you tech geeks roll your eyes and state that the Zune has a similar feature from the get go, know that some of us out there – gasp! – like the iPod better, even with its shortcomings.

Priced at $100, miShare may be a tall order for what is essentially an iPod hack. But for those looking for a convenient way to share their entire library on the go, there’s no better alternative…unless you want a Zune. But hey, a product that looks like a digital double-dildo has its merits, right?
