odd-i's P11N Win CE 5.0 PMP with GPS

Remember that peculiarly named, but otherwise damn fine odd-i P10 PMP you all (ok, ten commenters) liked so much? Well, odd-i just one-upped themselves by sprinkling in a bit of SiRF Star III GPS with a dash of Win CE 5.0 and christening the new chubster P11N. What's more, all the goodness that is the P10 carriers over so it still sports that same 4-inch, (480 x 272) 16:9 TFT LCD, unspecified dual core CPU, 2 megapixel cam, the ability to record direct from TV, up to 30GB of storage, USB 2.0 hosting, eBook reader, and support for a wide range of media formats including MPEG-1/4, Xvid, DiVx, WMV, MP3, WMA, OGG and AC3. Oh yeah, and it's still destined for Korea-only at the moment.

That thing is SO cool - where are the gray market importers when you need them?

The only way they could possibly make that better is by giving it gprs/edge support and wifi/bluetooth. This is very close The Ultimate Gadget.

The Korean Hardware Gearheads, ROCK! Jeesh, why can't we get this kind of cool stuff here!

The biggest barrier to entry for these devices is the battery life. If manufacturers can figure out a way to power these devices with longer "on" power then these products will penetrate the market beyond early adopters.

In addition, while content for these devices exists such as "digital music, video, etc., there needs to be one location such as a central website or some such innovation to allow the consumer to download information to these devices.

While I'm aware that music services and stores exist, there isn't one giant website that includes all of the content that these devices are able to display such as movies, music, books, graphic novels.

What is the battery life anyway? When used in the car its hooked up to power, when your at your desk its plugged in the same as when your in the house. So the only people wanting long battery life are ones on the bus - and who uses a bus? lol
This thing sounds great - get it here in the US and lets play!

Garmin has a similar device they just announced, though its around $1100. Where they hell do they get off with these prices?

Anything that REALLY catches the eyes of us american gadgeters is the Korean stuff. Those OEMS would make some real cake if they did something to give us any of th ose goodies :)

Id love to see a gadget like this in a Symbian package.

Too bad it's running CE, linux embedded seems to be more stable. I agree PEZ - Symbian based would be cool. It does have a lot of cool features though, I'll give it that.
