Microsoft Confirms Pink Zune Availability

By

This pink-colored Zune will be priced at $249.99 and be limited to just 100,000 units worldwide. One drawback, you won’t find any technical upgrades on the inside — we were really looking forward to the 80GB HDD. Product page. One more picture after the jump.

No, if Microsoft really wanted to impress us, they’d take their minds off planning a targeted, 100,000 unit production run of pink cases and set their mind to really fixing the Zune. One of the fixes is sorta down already, but there’s at least four more things that we think need to change in order for the social to get more members

The Ultimate Smallest MP3 Player

By

Yes, this product is actually called the “Ultimate Smallest MP3 Player”. It measures just 24 x 24 x 24mm and features 2GB of built-in memory for all your favorite tunes. Product page.

How small are we gonna get before we lose the thing under our fingernail? And what’s with the headphones being heavier than the device itself? Whoosh! Anyhoo, it’s got an in-built FM radio and handles MP3, WMA, ASF and WAV

(Video) Sony NW-A800 Reviewed

By

GenerationMP3 reviews the Sony NW-A800. Available in 2GB ($235), 4GB ($285), or 8GB ($400) varieties, the NW-A800 sports a 2-inch LCD display, support for a host of audio/video formats, and an impressive 30-hour (music) / 6-hour (video) battery life. Hands-on preview after the break. Here’s the bottom line:

On the software side, Sony’s made some big improvements, since they’ve not only spruced up SonicStage, with transcoding and the like, but also allow you to manage your player completely without it. Sony also has a new RSS app, for subscribing to podcasts, photo streams and videos to place on your player, but GenerationMP3 ran into some trouble areas with it. Battery life isn’t quite at the 30 hours Sony was promising, but 22 hours for ATRAC and 5 hours for video ain’t too shabby

MP3 Wristband

By

This nifty MP3 wristband boasts an OLED display, jog wheel navigation, and Bluetooth w/A2DP. No word yet on if this concept will go into production. Continue reading for another picture.

The only thing the artist left out is GPS capability, a highly desirable feature for runners and walkers. Adding navigation, distance traveled and thermometer functionality on board would be all that’s necessary to turn this into a complete design

By

Available in 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB capacities, the YP-K3 boasts a 1.8-inch OLED display, an FM tuner, and touch-sensitive navigation buttons. Short video overview after the jump. Here’s the bottom line:

Overall, the K3 looks like to be a fine little DAP. It’ll have a tough time knocking the iPod nano off its high horse, but a certainly has a more attractive design than other players out there
