Energy Sistem usually keeps things as sparse as possible with its budget-minded PMPs, but the company looks to be trying out a few new tricks with its 30xx series of players, which pack a not-so-discreet speaker on the front and some decent enough specs all around. That includes a 1.8-inch LCD, up to 16GB of storage, an FM tuner, a built-in mic, dual headphone jacks, and support for all the basic audio / video formats, not to mention Microsoft's newfangled PlayFX sound enhancement thingamajig. No word on a release 'round here, as you might have guessed, but folks in at least some parts of Europe can apparently pick this one up now in their choice of a range of colors for €109, or about $149.

Looks cool, specially the blue one.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing about the blue...looks pretty cool
For once the black is not as cool as some of the other colors
Oh... that thing on the front was a speaker?
Yes. And at some point, when this company's product designers are out in public and hear teenagers using their PMPs' speakers to play their horrible pop/emo/R&B/50 Cent, they'll regret they ever created this product.
I first saw a Zune. Then I was thinking "WTF is microsoft doing". Then I realized it looks like a Zune KIRF.
Oh great, more devices with clock radio-quality speakers to annoy anyone in a 50 foot radius.
I'm sure clock radio quality would be a step up!
Is that a heart or a checkmark ? I see it has the Zune interface.
not bad.. but i think archos 2 will do better. their 16gb for 100 bucks.. this looks like a similiar sansa hardware with cheaper zune interface.. i'm more of an old school creative zen micro guy.. well i hope this player doesnt have DRM proctected..
Zune KIRF?
I feel so honored
Wish there was a 32GB version. Now how about them hideous earphones eh?!
It's like a Zune, except it costs $4,000 to fill up.
That's actually a really smart looking player.
I checked them out on a trip to Europe last year and they are really cool. I know they are also available in the US at Amazon or www.xeustechnologies.com they go from 2 GB to 16 GB sound quality is great and they are perfect for gym goers because of their size.
