TrekStor received a special order from Russian-Canadian billionaire and owner of the Midland Formula 1 team, Alex Shnaider, to develop the world’s most expensive MP3 player.

    If you’re going to drop 20 big ones on an 18-karat gold, jewel-encrusted MP3 player, the device better sound as good as it looks. Luckily, TrekStor is at the top of the MP3-player game. This device features a beefy 1 GB memory to hold all your favorite tunes. It can playback MP3, WMA, WAV, ASF, and OGG file formats, and it even supports WMA-DRM9 (DRM-protected files).

    TrekStor built this MP3 player for two, offering a pair of headphone jacks that let you share your tunes with a friend as you’re whisked away on your private jet. The organix Gold is also equipped with a stereo FM radio and an integrated voice recorder (MP3 format) for taking audio notes. You can even use your organix Gold as a mobile data storage device with data transfer via the USB connection.

    TrekStor makes folder navigation a breeze, so it is easy to organize and locate your favorite tunes or recordings. The extremely sharp, two-color OLED screen displays ID3 tag information for your tracks, FM radio station information (up to 16 presets), and equalizer visualization (11 presets, and one custom equalizer). Now, if you’re a jet-setter, preset radio stations may not help you as you zip across time zones. Don’t fret, TrekStor has you covered with a built-in station search that will hone in on the strongest stations as you cross the nation.

    AMW M520P Portable DVD/CD/MP3 Player with 10.2-Inch Widescreen LCD (Pearl)

    AMW M520P Portable DVD/CD/MP3 Player with 10.2-Inch Widescreen LCD (Pearl)

    Dedicated to providing a full-bodied entertainment experience on the go, the portable M520P DVD/CD/MP3 player includes a 10.2-inch TFT LCD display that makes your movies look great, along with both built-in speakers and a headphone jack for private listening–all in an attractive pearl-colored housing.

    The all-in-one entertainment bundle is a great way to entertain kids in the backseat, keep yourself amused on long plane trips, or bide time in a hotel room on rainy days. Among the unit’s favorite features are a selectable aspect ratio (4:3 and 16:9), which lets you view movies in traditional format or full widescreen depending on your taste; multi-angle playback, which shows select movie scenes from several angles (requires compatible DVD); and a multilingual dialogue option for listening (or reading subtitles) in a variety of different languages. More traditional functions include slow motion, multi-speed forward and reverse scan, track programming, and zoom.

    Of course, DVDs are just one of the playback options, as the M520P also supports CD, CD-R/RW, HDCD, VCD, SVCD, DVD Audio, and Kodak Picture CD formats, along with MP3 and WMA files stored on a recordable CD.

    The variety of compatible formats is vastly superior to most portable DVD players, especially the DVD Audio and HDCD formats, both of which offer far better fidelity than audio CDs. To ensure the best possible audio performance, the M520P includes a built-in Dolby Digital decoder for DVD soundtracks, along with a Dolby/DTS SPDIF digital output that connects directly to 5.1-channel A/V receivers. By employing the latter option, users can enjoy full-bodied surround sound through their home theater system while watching films on the DVD player.

    Archos AV500 100 GB Multimedia Player

    Archos AV500 100 GB Multimedia Player

    I expect a lot out of a high tech toy specially from this mp3 player — and this thing grabbed me right out of the box. I waited a couple months before reviewing - to be sure there weren’t any hidden issues.

    For many long plane flights I wanted to bring selected TV shows from my Media Center PC DVR. This syncs without a hitch using Windows Media Player 10 (the only hitch, perhaps, is that you have to find the folder where Media Center stores video and drag and drop files from there — quite easy). The file compression for the device is handled automatically.
    Video quality is superb - just the right size for personal viewing. Way easier than hauling out the laptop on a plane or anywhere else.This is diferent than other mp3 players on the market.

    I found it easy to record whole DVDs to it as well - they also get automattically compressed, but with excellent image and audio on playback.

    An unexpected bonus for me is the built mics for stereo audio recording. The quality is great and I find I’m using that feature quite a bit.

    It looks and feels solid and I’ve had nothing but good luck with mine so far.

    Intel mp3 player

    Monday, April 17th, 2006

    Amp up your favorite music with the Intel Pocket Concert Audio Player. This mp3 player combines Intel performance and intuitive software to deliver big, crystal-clear, totally skip-proof sound for listening at your PC, on your home stereo, in your car, and on the go. The Intel Pocket Concert Audio Player supports MP3, WMA and future audio standards. The Intel Pocket Concert Audio Player is engineered for your ears - and designed to fit right in your pocket.

    The Intel name may not immediately spark the interest of music aficionados, but with the introduction of its Pocket Concert portable MP3 player, that’s sure to change. The Pocket Concert’s 128 MB of memory doubles the capacity of most players without costing any more money. Combine that value with excellent sound quality and a well-designed, easy-to-use interface, and you’ve got a formidable contender.

    We ran a simple setup program to install all of the Pocket Concert’s drivers and software applications. The mp3 player connects to the PC’s USB port for a fast transfer of files, and it is compatible with Windows 98, Windows ME, and Windows 2000. We appreciated the Intel Audio Manager’s simple interface for transferring files to the player, as well as the powerful MusicMatch Jukebox Plus software that let us rip music from CDs and create playlists as well as transfer files.

    With a sleek, rounded, polished-aluminum body, this lightweight player fit comfortably in our hand or fastened onto our belt or bag with the removable clip. The player’s solid-state flash memory makes it completely impervious to shocks and jolts, so it’s ideal for using while jogging or working out at the gym.

    The unit’s 128 MB of flash memory storage translates into two to four hours of music, depending on the compression ratio and file type. (The Concert supports both MP3 and the more highly compressed WMA files.) The unit’s memory capacity isn’t upgradable, but to anyone who’s used 64 or 32 MB players, 128 MB will feel like decadent luxury.

    The Pocket Concert plays its crystal-clear digital audio through a pair of “neckphone” headphones, which have a dark blue headband that clips over your ears and swings around the back of your head. Though they’re considerably bulkier than the ear-bud style headphones found with most MP3 players, we were impressed by the full, rich sound and found the secure fit good for exercising.
