So RAmos has a new MP3 player, the hardware is nice, but nothing too special, it has a 2.8” touchscreen, a microSD slot, 2GB of built in memory, a built in speaker, and a 1.3MP camera. Formats aren’t anything special either with support for MP3, WMA, WAV, OGG, FLAC, AC3, AVI, ASF, MPG, 3GP, MP4, FLV, JPG, BMP, GIF, and TXT. What is special though is the software.
Why is that we want our TV’s to be huge and we want portable media players to be so tiny you have to squint to see them? It’s one of the great mysteries of the human race. In any case, there is yet another portable player to take into consideration for you teeny tiny needs.
I love reporting on these amazing foreign personal media players knowing that it will be years before we ever have the video support or even the audio file support they off in a single player. These days we are lucky if we get MP3, AAC, and then if the company has one, they’ll throw in some proprietary audio format.
This PMP from Shenzhen Suno Technology looks pretty good compared to most of the rather boxy media players we see these days. It will play AVI, WMV, MP3, and WMA (with lyric display) as well as display various picture formats.
And surprisingly not due to it being on the French network. It’s called that because of the extreme amount of bright orange used on this slider phone.
Its 13.3mm and a slider, I want a slider that thin to hit stateside, I love sliders, but they are always so thick, I guess this one is the exception. It has MP3 playback, a dictionary, camera, and 3G thanks to WCDMA.
Sadly though it will never see the light of day stateside, its headed only to Korea’s KTF network and will cost you the equivalent of about $372 USD. Oh, in case you were wondering, there is no T-DMB in this phone.

Essentially what this is, is a really nice card reader that also plugs into your TV an makes it really easy to throw your pictures up on the ole TV. There are card slots for the following card types: CF, MS, MS PRO, SmartMedia, xD, SD, and MMC.
In on of the poorest uses for an OLED screen ever, there is this M-Toy MP3 Player which displays an image in 3 concentric circles and requires the user to straighten the image out before it will play the tunes. The tunes come from the USB flash drive that comes with the whole set.
I suppose you could use it just about anywhere it might get wet, but won’t get submerged. You can fit any small MP3 player in it, as long as its smaller than 2.55×4.17x.78 inches in size.
This little gem launched today, and I assume the 32GB is flash storage, every site I saw this thing at referred to the storage as “memory” and the capacity is a rounded out flash size like 8, 16, 32, 64, instead of HDD sizes like 200, 250, and 400GB. Anyways, it’s a Creative Zen model, and it comes in black, and it can store about 8k songs.
How can you call a speaker set portable if it requires a power outlest? Regardless, these speakers are small, compact if you will, and crank out a total of 5 watts of sound from the pair.
