Lookout For iRiver
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "THOUGHT" @ 10:00 AM
I am sure you have all heard about me rant and rave about my iRiver iHP 140 (pictured below). :)
But I think it would be worth it to point out that the rest of the incredible and ever expanding line of products from iRiver rocks too. Their flagship products appear to be their audio players but appear to be set to jump into the PVP market as well. Among products expected this year is a portable CD player which will play MP3s and has a video-out port for watching DivX video files on a TV (the iMP 1000). "Additional products include -
- The iFP-1000, a Flash-based MP3 player with a built-in digital camera and a 1.2-inch color screen.
- The medallion-style iFP-1100.
- The iHP-300, which has a 2-inch color screen.
- The PMC-100 personal video player, which has a 3.5-inch screen and runs on Microsoft’s Portable Media Center software.
- The PMP-100, another personal video player with a 3.5-inch screen that can play games as well as movies and music."
In my opinion, iRiver is one of the few manufacturers out there that is doing a great job with the design as well as the UI of the devices it puts on the market, which is why I have been supporting them so strongly.
