Pretty much. I just wanted to parody the idiots who say "Also, first" after their comments. But there's no way anyone could take this thing seriously. I mean you can fit what, 2 movies on that thing? Might as well just buy the blu-ray discs.

While its true that a lot of the cost contributes to the services, software, research, UI, support, etc. But, I can see that there is a hefty amount of profit to be made from this market. Its reasonable that Microsoft stuck to its guns with the Zune and didn't give up.]]>Oct 18th 2009 5:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/

ipod and Zune will fail horribly on sound chips. The best thing going right now in the Chinese market is Wolfson audio decoder chips. I have had 2 devices with those chips and pitted them against the top brands aforementioned and shamed them horribly. You can say all you want about audiophiles and how the difference can't be heard. I beg you to put a device with a Wolfson chip against an ipod or zune. I dare you even. There isn't an ear in the world that won't hear the difference. YES, it's that drastically noticable.

I'm not saying this device in the article has that chip. It may not, and that doesn't matter. I'm advocating the quality-for-price ratio of these Chinese players. Ok, so the first device I had, a Nationite S:flo (rebranded Teclast T-50) had the shittiest firmware I've ever used. Just horrible. But the sound was AMAZING. Second device I had was a Samsung P2, which got dropped once and now it's got a short so bad it won't turn on anymore. Bummer, because I loved that thing. BUT, once again, that Wolfson audio chip ROOOOCKED!

Now there is a Nationite S:flo v2 coming this month (if not already out) that is muy updated, and this device has 2, TWO, 1+1=2 Wolfson audio chips. One for each channel. BAM! The sound will be ethereal. It's also the newest Wolfson chip as well, which from what I heard will dominate.

So maybe the Wolfson won't beat out the likes of Creative. After all, they own the sound business. Frankly I dont' know anyone that owns a creative player, so I couldn't test it.

What I'm saying is that you can read all the hype you want, and read all the negative engadget articles you want slamming Chinese mp3/mp4 players, but I have owned one, and I can tell you from experience and passion that yes, the internal memory is shameful when there's an option for 1080 output, but shop around and pick up a cheap one with the Wolfson chips for your mp3's. It's like listening to your favorite music for the first time. In-freakin-credible. So you do have to shop around and compare. And for god sakes, read user reviews! Make yourself aware of the prominent issues with players of any kind, or products of any kind for that matter, so that you know what you're getting into. All electronics have a fail rate. Deal with it or work around it. My player(s) broke and yea, I was pissed, but I only paid $100 for each, months apart. It's been worth that at least for the pleasure my ears have received and the experience and knowledge that a cheap Chinese mp3 player can crush the biggest names in the biz without even flexing.

there will be an S:flo v2 in my hands in the next month or so and a 16gb microSD to max it out. (where the hell is 32gb? Most devices say that they support 32gb, but there's no such thing. Did I miss a memo?)]]>Oct 18th 2009 12:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/Oct 18th 2009 4:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/
Being kinda picky here, but I think that should read "(or ten hours of audio)"... unless it really does double battery life when you play movies with audio. xD]]>Oct 18th 2009 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://gemeitech.manufacturer.globalsources.com/si/6008815355683/Homepage.htm]]>Oct 18th 2009 2:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/Oct 18th 2009 5:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/Oct 18th 2009 9:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/Oct 18th 2009 11:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/18/gemeis-4-3-inch-hd8800-pmp-does-1080p-out-other-cool-things-fo/Oct 18th 2009 11:35PM
