MeLE showcases chunky GPS-enabled GMT-600 PMP

Though it pains us so, there's not an awful lot of information out there just yet on MeLE's forthcoming do-it-all PMP. Spotted at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong, the admittedly beefy unit was seen sporting a 4.3-inch 480 x 272 resolution display, a relatively gigantic bezel and room for a 2.5-inch hard drive within. If we had to guess, we'd surmise that it'll play nice with pretty much any useful audio / video format on the planet, but it seems the price and release date are still cloaked in mystery.

Thats one ugly pmp

Same thought here.

I would never think of being that anywhere with me, and those side grey buttons remind me of those Chinese iphone knockoffs, that all had them.

Epoc fail.

A pmp that has room for a 2.5in hard drive? Thats more like a crappy umpc.

For one, that thing looks like the LG Vu to me, for some reason.

Two, looking at the specs from the read link, "Adopting a 4.3-inch LCD screen with 480 x 272 pixels, it is equipped with a 2.5-inch HDD supporting up to 160GB," I'd totally use this. This, of course, is under the assumption that I never have to pay for it (e.g.: it's gifted to me). Given its screen and HDD (I hope I'm using the right acronym [hope that's the correct designation], I'm a cell phone guy...hence LG Vu reference), it'd be nice to keep in the car or to use for a plane ride cuz there's no way I'd be seen sporting that thing in the general public
