Thomson's Lyra PDP2662S works it out

by Ryan Block, posted May 25th 2006 at 11:07AM

We're not talking too high end when we get into the Thomson (RCA) Lyra PDP2662S: it's a 512MB flash player supposedly without PlaysForSure support (though the draft spec-sheet we saw on it says otherwise), but there really aren't too many water-resistant audio players that measure the usual workout metrics (pulse, calories burned, time, etc.). Too bad we hear the PDP2662S doesn't even do that very well; perhaps you'll want to save those dollars for a Philips Active or, ahem, Nike+iPod Sport Kit.

Here I was hoping for an MP3 player for my motorbike, until you mentioned calories and such healthy stuff. I guess I'll keep looking. :)
