For Koreans, the mintpad just got better with DMB TV added. It’s also colored black now. Price for the mintpad + DMB is about $180 or +$30 from the original white. The promo says [...]

I wonder what Lenovo can contribute to the PMP market. A more robust build? Sleeker form factor. Whatever qualities Lenovo laptops have doesn’t seem to translate to the company’s MRT800 portable media player.

More cheap electronics from iRiver. The E150 succeeds the E100, which last we heard was selling for $59 for the 8GB version.
