Viewsonic officially launches VPD400 MovieBook media player

November 10th, 2009 Gadget Reviews No comments
Viewsonic was showing this one off way back in July alongside a slew of other gear, but it’s just now gotten fully official with its VPD400 MovieBook media player, which is apparently available right away for $129.99. That will get you a 4.3-inch 800 x 480 display, 8GB of internal memory, a micro SD card slot for more, an AV out port for some bigger screen viewing (not HDMI, it seems), and a promised 12 hours of battery life for audio and six for video — not to mention your choice of black, pink or white color options. Not too shabby, just don’t go expecting anything fancy like WiFI or a touchscreen.

Creative’s ZEN X-Fi2 touchscreen PMP now on sale

November 8th, 2009 Gadget Reviews No comments

Candidly speaking, we can’t honestly envision too many of you fine folks running out and purchasing one of Creative’s new ZEN X-Fi2 portable media players given the availability of such robust alternatives. That said, we’d be remiss of our duties if we didn’t point out that the PMP which shocked us at IFA is now on sale directly from Creative. $129.99 buys you an 8GB model, while $179.99 nets you 16GB and $229.99 provides 32GB. We know — that 3-inch LCD and integrated FM tuner look good from afar, but remember kids, it’s all about the UI.

[Thanks, Tyler]

Cowon iAudio 9 and iAudio E2 media players make the scene stateside

November 4th, 2009 Gadget Reviews No comments
Cowon-heads of the world, you are in for a treat today. It looks like not one but two of the company’s snack-sized media players are finally hitting the big time. First off, the iAudio 9 PMP is due to hit the states within a week. Available in 8GB and 16GB denominations, for some reason the domestic version will be available only in black. Aside from supporting the usual compliment of media files (MP3, FLAC, Ogg, WAV, APE, WME, XviD, and WMV videos) this guy sports composite video out. Get your hands on the 8GB version for $129, or go wild with 16GB for $169. If video isn’t your bag, the enigmatic iAudio E2 (all 2.5-inches of it) is also available. Sporting a bevy of EQ presets, 4GB of storage and a not entirely terrible 11.5 hours of battery life, this is the keychain you’ve always wanted — but never wanted to pay $65 for. Additional glamor shots after the break.

Tricorder PMP-09 won’t analyze data or call Starfleet, will lift your spirits with music

August 18th, 2009 Gadget Reviews No comments

Let us tell you, this isn’t any ordinary Star Trek tricorder prop, if such a thing exists. The Tricorder PMP-09 looks an awful lot like the Mark X model from the series, has a 2.8-inch TFT screen, plays up to 12 hours music / 4 hours of video and supports AVI, MP4, JPG, BMP, and WAV files. It boasts 12 different LCARS / themed interface, and from what we can see on the site, at least six different skins, including Starfleet, Borg, Workbee, and Marine. Starting price is $362.50 for US orders / $384.50 for international. It probably won’t help you in the event of a Sith or Dalek encounter, or if you find yourself in need of medical assistance, but the next time you run into a Deep Space 9 crew member on the street, you better believe this’ll make for a great ice breaker. Videos of the packaging and working display model, flashing LEDs and all, after the break.

[Thanks, Anthony]

RAmos T6 PMP don’t need no buttons

August 10th, 2009 Gadget Reviews No comments

Ah, if it isn't RAmos again. The only Chinese PMP maker that cranks out wares that aren't chock full of KIRF. The outfit's latest endeavor is the T6 icon, a sleek, simplistic media player that isn't apt to head stateside anytime soon. Packing a 4.3-inch LCD (800 x 480 resolution) and a frame that's just ten millimeters thick, the HD-capable device also boasts an HDMI output and nary a button on the front face. 'Course, the assortment of rockers around the edges ensures that your volume level and track selection isn't solely controlled by a touchscreen, but we definitely appreciate the clean look.
