New portable CD player with video screen
Tuesday September 7, 2004
Though there is no presence of it on their website as of yet, portable audio company iRiver said in a press release today with Texas Instruments that the new IMP 1100 A/V CD player was slated to hit stores sometime this fall. The IMP 1100 will have the standard round portable CD player look, but a 2-inch color LCD will be built into the front to allow video and photos to be viewed. Some interesting specs:
- TV-out/line out to watch shows on the home TV
- Upgradeable firmware to get the latest features of tomorrow
- Audio formats -- MP3, Windows Media Audio (WMA) and ASF, DivX video, and imaging formats -- JPEG and BMP, offering broad support for content
