When Chinese PMP maker ONDA is not imitating an Apple product, it can come up with very solid PMP designs. Take the VX989 mini-PMP. It looks like it’s encased in brushed stainless steel. A thing of simple beauty. The screen is a 2.8-inch QVGA (320 x 240) TFT LCD. Compatible files: MP3, WMA, WAV, APE, FLAC, MPEG-4 (AVI), Xvid (QVGA at 20fps), JPG, LRC and TXT. Includes two headphone jacks, FM tuner and microphone. It’s priced at only $99.

Hi, though we’d love nothing than to be helpful we cannot directly recommend online retailers. We don’t want to get sued when the retailer proves less than satisfactory.
You can, however, check our previous post about a site that sells Chinese PMPs outside China.

We warn you not to take anything you see on the Web at face value.
