Soundstream shows off touchscreen media player
Thursday March 20, 2008
When one considers the sheer number of portable media players on the market today, it is hard to distinguish oneself from the pack. Soundstream, a relatively unknown company in this space, is hoping to gain some traction with its recently revealed X-ITE MP28 portable media player.
The Soundstream X-ITE MP28, I will say upfront, will probably be a very hard player to find at retail. That being said, it does seem to have some features of note. It sports a rather nice looking 2.8-inch display which is touch sensitive, meaning you'll be controlling most of the functions by touching the screen. It also support a wide variety of audio, video and digital image media formats, which is important for those of you who know what OGG or APE mean.
Other features of the MP28 include a FM radio, voice recording, 2 GB or 4 GB of memory for storing media, a mini SD card slot for expanded memory and included ear phones. No specific word on pricing or availability.
