We’ve been waiting for a formal tech review* of the iRiver P7 PMP. The touted “Magazine touch user interface” is fairly intriguing. What else can iRiver contribute to user-friendly interface that Apple hasn’t already (iriver P.ple P7 specs here)? It plays RM/RMVB, AVI, WMV, MP4, DAT/MPG, 3GP/K3G and FLV as well as MP3, WMA, WAV, OGG, FLAC audio files. I’m not sure how it handles text and e-Books but wouldn’t it be nice if you can display text side by side videos and album art? The iRiver P7 is available in 8GB ($160) and 16GB with microSD memory expansion.
Video impression after the break.
* Here’s a rather thorough review from Reghardware and they explain the Magazine GUI, very simple really…
Magazine user interface changes as files are updated: music, photo and text file represented according to latest files accessed. No kidding, this would be great if applied to media center computers.
