The color screen is nice I guess, but the specs don't list it as having any picture-viewing ability, so it doesn't appear add any functionality. List price is 449,000 Korean Won, which is about US$386. Reasonable for a 1gb flash player, but of course, you can get a H140 (40gb) player for the same amount."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/ifp999.jpg" /><br /><br />Another beautiful device by iRiver, it has a 1.2-inch, 262k color screen, support for MP3, WMA, ASF, OGG and has built in FM radio and line-input and voice recording. It weighs in a 62g and has 64 x 51 x 20mm dimensions. The internal battery gives 40 hours of playback time. The unfortunate part is the price as I can see more people going for an iPod mini instead of this, especially since they would be getting 4GB vs 1GB.

This device looks nice - but in the UK how are we looking for REAL multi media devices ? Anyone - we have the Archos 420 - I'm still unsure - should I ?
