Safa rolls out accelerometer-equipped G3 PMP

Safa's PMPs haven't always done that much to distinguish themselves from the masses of nondescript players out there, but it looks to have stepped up its game slightly with its new G3 model, which not only looks decent enough, but packs a still-not-all-that-common accelerometer to boot. Apart from that somewhat notable feature, you can expect to get a 3-inch touchscreen, 4GB or 8GB of storage, a built-in microphone, an FM tuner, support for all the usual audio / video formats, and a promised 15 hours of battery life for audio and four hours for video. No word on a price or release date just yet, but if Safa's past PMPs are any indication, you can expect this one to remain a Korean-exclusive.

How is an accelerometer not common...

[OneLove @ Jun 18th 2009 6:29PM]

when only a few devices have them.

[dsteve303 @ Jun 18th 2009 6:32PM]

Well, I just feel like ALMOST ever touchscreen phone has one and is not like revolutionary or anything.

Nothing to see here, move on.

I thought, for a moment, that someone had equipped a sofa with mp3 capability and an accelerometer.
Then, I pondered how fast one could swing a couch and got very confused.
Then, I re-read the headline and got bored.
