iStation U43 PMP is amazing

Why is it that the companies from far away lands that no one has ever heard of are the people releasing the PMPs that could actually give the iPod a run for its money? Why can't Microsoft, a multi-billion dollar company come up with something that a company in Korea with an operating budget likely in the millions can come up with?

Anyways, this thing has a touchscreen, 4.3-inches worth to be exact, DMB-TV capability, GPS, and an E-Dictionary. On top of that it runs WinCE 5.0 in your choice of 3 flavors (standard, DMB, and Navi) with your choice of 2 capacities, 30 and 60 gigabytes.

The format list alone is highly impressive, MP3, WMA, AC3, OGG, WAV, AAC, FLAC, MPEG4, DIVX, XVID, and WM9, that's an amazing list, I am sure there are several picture formats supported too. You can get them for 326 and 362 Euros respective to their capacities.
