Digital Cowboy's CA-K7 karaoke DAP

by Thomas Ricker, posted May 24th 2007 at 10:01AM

If you don't see the need for karaoke in a DAP then you're obviously living outside of this "continent oriented" player. The CA-K7 from Japan's Digital Cowboy packs 1GB of flash, an integrated microphone, and a proprietary jack on the bottom for connecting an external mic, TV, and home audio system. It also packs enough vocal manipulation tweaks to give you a shot at fronting Jane's Addiction. Of course, it also functions as a portable player with an integrated FM tuner and support for MP3, WMA, and OGG audio at up to 12 hours per charge. Rolling out in Japan and vicinity on May 31st for ¥14,800 or about $122. Check another picture after the break.

Isn't Nirvana the lyric "I'm half the man I used to be"

I believe it's Creep by STP. But you are correct "I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be ..."

It's "Yesterday" by the Beatles (you can see the song name starts with a "Y"). So the lyrics are correct.

You're correct, but like the other guy says, that's not what the lyrics on the screen are. The lyrics on the screen and the song title are clearly Yesterday by the Beatles.

PS: I think these features are pimp. I'd love to have one of these instead of my big clunky CD+G karoke setup. (not really big and clunky as it's the size of a miniATX, but still, it's not DAP).

I don't know about you guys but don't you think that Japanese electrical products feature the most crappest fonts ever? They are normally really obscure (Microsoft fonts) or plain crazy.

Don't they see the need for snazzier and more modern fonts?
