TENNIS!

"I am on a roll with ideas!"
Aren't we all?
How about a mixrowave using modualtion of the FM radio reciever? What about a stud detector? Rave stick by flashing the X5 LED charge light? Physics simulator?
Llorean:
I still think that for units with both a line in and a line out, the clear solution is to create a software modem or custom networking system using the line-ins and line-outs of an arbitrary amount of units to create a basic networking system, perhaps for multiplayer gaming. :-P
soap:
A frequency-hopping audio modulation technique with traffic control performed by the "master" DAP could succeed in allowing 4 or more players to connect to an active audio "hub" of sorts, allowing that game of mixed doubled tennis I have always dreamed of.
yeah.
/sarcasm
pabouk:
Maybe the ring topology would be more suitable because you would not need any hub - just 3.5 mm jack to 3.5 mm jack cables.
IMHO controling media acces of more than two devices is easier in the ring topology.
IMHO spread spectrum techniques (like frequency-hopping) are a big overkill with a little added value even in the hub topology. I think for the beginning it would be more suitable to use some simple modulation just in the time domain which is much less CPU intensive.
Multiplex:
I think that the problem with a ring will be latency.
Milti-player tennis will become very difficult with a lag between you moving the joystick (whatever) and your piece moving.
I was just going to suggest that this is highly unlikely to ever happen but with the inventiveness and dogged determination to do stuff just for the challenge shown by the Rockbox team, I think it's highly likely - at least for a two player tennis anyway...
