For a couple years now I've been saying it'd be great to have a way to link MP3 players together via bluetooth. For instance,
- you're snowboarding with your friend and want to listen to what he's hearing
- share a song with a friend on a ski lift, in a classroom, library, whatever.
- share music on a long airpline ride.
...whatever, be a nice option that when you're within range of another blue tooth ipod you can play/share music, when you go out of range, you'll play off you're own hard drive. That'd just be neat to have integrated with how small the bluetooth hardware is these days. Heck, then apple can use it for PC connectivity and all sorts of things (in addition to the Belkin functionality above).

The product concept is within the realm of possibility I'm sure it has been discussed at Apple. With Apples reputation for inovative technology and design and the relitively short product cycle in the Ipod line some day soon we may have the Ipod wireless.(or maybe Ypod)

Now if they would just make some bluetooth headphones for the iPod, I would be happy. Listening with no cords would be great.
