Today has been incredibly busy, thankfully for all good reasons. This is just a brief note to give Backstage readers a heads up that we’re going to be looking at something seriously cool over the next couple of days: Harman Kardon’s Guide + Play. If you haven’t heard of it yet, look it up. It’s an iPod-sized GPS device, music and video player the likes of which we never expected out of Harman.

Believe it or not, we actually passed on the chance to cover this earlier, since it wasn’t really iPod-specific, and we weren’t sure if it would be of interest to iLounge readers. After we spent time checking one out today, we were so blown away by the elegance of the GPS interface that we felt compelled to share it with you. Expect more very soon.
