Upcoming Samsung MP3 Players: Might the iPod be Doomed?
This particular piece details a number of of the new Samsung MP3 players which are expected to roll-out quite soon. It talks about the capabilities of these fresh units and poses the question of whether the iPod can be unseated as the ruler of the MP3 players.
Although Samsung has not given us the exact date,
the release of the new Ice Touch and MyFit MP3 players are expected within the next several weeks!
The last great multimedia player, the P3, was introduced by Samsung Electronics America, Inc., over 17 months ago. It was selected as a CES Innovations 2009 Design and Engineering Award honoree for the way it combined easy multimedia playback with a high-end design. The widescreen 3-in touch monitor allows for enjoyment of video and photos at a 16.9 aspect ratio. The unit includes Samsung's touch interface "EmoTure" which has been upgraded, allowing for an improved standard in bringing the user and the player together. The P3 comes equipped with a special feature, the Music Hot Touch Key, which allows you instant access to your favorite music without the need to go through menus. Until now, Samsung’s design ingenuity is paramount in the P3 player.
The arrival of Samsung's newest MP3 players is expected any day, and they will have tremendous appeal to two distinct groups of consumers. Get ready to give a hearty welcome to Samsung's new IceTouch and Myfit Wellness Promotiong MP3 players!
The IceTouch is a Samsumg MP3 player that plays both music and videos with exceptional quality. It comes in either 8 or 16 gigabytes. Because it is loaded with applications to support many other features, such as a photo album and a high quality video player, the IceTouch MP3 player will bring more versatility to the table than has any other MP3 player before it. The IceTouch has a feature that will also allow the consumer to connect it to a home stereo system, which is made possible by its DNSe 3.0 and 5.1-channel sound enhancement technology. The IceTouch's most unique feature is its transparent full color 2 inch Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode transparent touch screen. This is a transparent touch screen which is the first of its kind. You can access the options for the player from either side of the touch screen. For those of us who have been waiting for an MP3 player that combines superb quality in both music and video, our patience will be soon rewarded!
