EraTech EMP-100 Audio Player
"Korean EraTech (Beatsounds in the USA) introduces the EMP-100 and EMP-110 high-end flash MP3 Players. The EMP-100 MP3 Player from EraTech is rather straight forward in its looks compared to the EraTech EMP-ZII, but is still very small, measuring only 30x75x16mm and weighing 32.8g. The tiny Gadget features SRS, TruBass, WOW, 3D surround effect and a 9 mode equalizer. The EMP-100 can have a storage configuration starting from 128MB up to 1GB. The EMP-100 can record directly MP3 for voice recording. The new EraTech supports MP3, WMA and ASF playback." They have built-in FM tuners and havebuilt in Li-ion batteries and a 3 line display. I am actually willing to live with the fact that they have a USB 1.1 interface due to the built in USB plug and the incredibly small form factor, it is basically as small as most USB drives. Price and date of availability are not currently available but the devices sure look sweet.

Wow, that's awesomely tiny! I wonder what the sound is like? As much as I love USB devices like this, it KILLS me how badly designed some computers are with regards to the front USB ports. Some, like the Dell machines at the college where I teach, have the front ports recessed and up at an angle, making it impossible to connect anything without an extension cable. Grr. :evil:

That drives me crazy. The computers at work are like that too. I would never buy a Dell for that very reason. Well that and I don't like OEM desktops.

Plus, Dells (at least the one I've used with front-mounted USB) have their front-mounted USB ports "backwards". Try plugging something with a LED into it and see what the LED is doing
