This is probably one of the most uninteresting annoucnement this month. The MPIO V7 is a 3-inch touchscreen PMP with haptics and shake control. It is available in 4GB for 129,000 won ($112) and 8GB for 159,000 won ($138). It’s not the most featured Korean PMP but the price more than makes up for what [...]

Thanks to Jimmy Fallon and Engadget Editor in Chief Joshua Topolsky, Palm employees could sleep well tonight. Joshua went in as the third guest of Late Night and had a rather lengthy interview with the host talking mainly abut the Palm Pre. It’s a big show, obviously, everyone’s watching how Jimmy is holding up after [...]

Details of Acer’s Eee PC beater have surfaced and they are too tempting to pass - though we usually cover the portable devices with multimedia entertainment focus. Screen, chassis and processor (1.6GHz Atom N270) are the same in all three models. What I find interesting is the OS-storage combo and the pretty even pricing between [...]

MPIO is known in this website as a manufacturer of PMPs with quite amusing designs, and it comes as no surprise that one of their players was voted one of the worst DAP of 2007 by CNET. MPIO’s most recent model, however, might just vindicate the company. Sure, the V10 is a Cowon Q5 wannabe [...]

Well, we’ve seen products with prominent controls and/or a built-in speaker or two, but never quite as in-your-face as the MT-C205 from March Technology. This device supports AVI videos, MP3, WAV and WAV audio files (with LRC lyrics display), and we assume some form of images. The MT-C205 has a 2.2-inch, 220×176 pixel TFT display [...]

MPIO has made official the first PMP with two D-Pads. I know they look like female funbags but MPIO assures us they are both necessary. First announced at the IFA, it’s one of the most unique-looking PMPs you’ll find on store shelves this hristmas. The screen is 2.4 inches with QVGA resolution and it [...]

The MO100 from MPIO is quite your typical mini-PMP from China with SMV video supported natively. It also plays WMA and MP3 with ID3 tag support and views JPEG and BMP. The 1.8-inch TFT only boasts 128 x 160 pixels, hardly an iPod Nano killer but it does have an FM tuner. Again, nothing [...]
