Other than the Portable Media Center devices, there are several vendors showcasing MP3 players. It seems that the second motherboard manufacturer to join MSI in flash MP3 players will be FIC with their new line of MP3/flash/Bluetooth devices. The concept for FIC is to have the MP3 player hook up to your desktop computer or cell phone via Bluetooth protocol. The name for the player has not yet been determined, but they will start off in the 64MB capacities from what we have been told. The introduction of the iPod mini makes the MP3 market more interesting since Apple is going after the small profile MP3 player market, but the sub 100 dollar market is still very competitive. Bluetooth may likely give the FIC the distinction they need in this market.

I don't know why, but I feel so absolutely elated to see the digicam with the OLED screen.Idoxash - Monday, January 12, 2004 - link
That's one thin notebook there by Sharp. The only thing that makes it look less in my eyes is the cpu it uses. It would have been better I would say to go with one of thoes VIA low energy cpus.--Idoxash

Great just what we need, more people screwing around with Cell Phones/PDA’s while waiting in line. And people though Cell phones are bad now, just wait. I can see it now. Car crash kill a bus load of Nuns because some jerk was playing Quake 3 while driving INSTEAD of driving.
