Weeks after announcing their new PMP, the LINQ, Venzero has come out with an iteration already, the LINQ mini, which, unfortunately inly has DAP functionality.

The XCUTE DV2 is possibly the mother of all convergence devices. It’s no Chinese hack job. Rather, it’s Taiwan manufactured, the same Taiwan where they’re mass producing the iPhone. Not to mention the DV2 is second-generation, successor of (for all intents and purposes) the successful DV1. The DV2 was introduced as early as two [...]

GenerationMP3’s got an exclusive sneak preview of Venzero’s Mini and SLICKR! Their report on the gadgets are written in French, which I would happily translate for you if I knew the language. From what I could see in the photos, the Mini does look rather tiny but it seems to be a [...]
