Samsung T10 goes floral for spring


It rains every day and the birds won't shut up -- yeah, spring's here, and Samsung's celebrating by dressing up the T10 in this fetching black and purple floral number. Details are scarce, as the "La Fleur Special Edition" of the well-regarded PMP isn't official yet, but we'd expect to see it pop up rather soonish.

Blue Wave 4 firmware for Samsung P2 previewed?


Samsung just launched the Blue Wave 3 firmware for the YP-P2 and T10 today, but we're already hearing whispers of Blue Wave 4 -- check out this image that's popped up on some forums. Apparently all you P2 owners out there can look forward to customizable (and shareable) UI skins, some new Bluetooth-based games, subway maps, custom EQ settings, password controls, and voice recording sometime in the future, but we have no idea when. Until then, feast your eyes on the whole image after the break.

Samsung lets loose Blue Wave 3 firmware update for P2, T10 PMPs

Samsung's first two "Blue Wave" firmware updates for its P2 and T10 PMPs came in relatively quick succession, but it's taken a bit longer for the third one to make its way out the door. Those in Korea can now give their players another boost, however, with the new Blue Wave 3 update apparently available for the taking. On the P2, that'll give you four new GUI themes, along with a new full screen mode, a calculator and dictionary, and new brightness and speed controls for video playback. The T10, on the other hand, will get a full ten new themes, along with three new games, a video bookmarking feature, horizontal viewing and AAC support, and the ability to delete files on the device itself. No word on a similar release 'round these parts just yet, but we wouldn't expect it to be too long in coming.

Samsung launches first Blue Wave firmware upgrades for P2 and T10 PMPs

Samsung's delivering its promised P2 and T10 firmware updates that finally unleash the Bluetooth capabilities of the devices. More updates are promised down the line, but this first round of the "Blue Wave" allows Bluetooth-based file transfers, as well as phone integration. You can manage most phone functions from your DAP -- including making calls and browsing the contact list -- as well as have your music interrupted by incoming calls. Not a bad start at all, Samsung.

Live! Nude! DAPs!: Samsung P2 and T10 dissected on video


Everyone loves observing their favorite gadgets splayed across a table in pieces, chipsets and radios fully exposed for the world to see, but nothing quite beats the delicious build-up and eventual pay-off of a tear-down captured on video. And with hot little devices like Samsung's 8GB, Bluetooth 2.0-equipped YP-P2 and YP-T10 DAPs, the time-honored dissection ritual seems particularly suited to filming. Thanks to Korean YEPP fan LikEraser, you can watch it all go down after the break, and even catch a full description of the individual parts by clicking on the Read link. Warning: those who value their hearing / sanity will mute the embedded videos and substitute a favorite tune instead.

Samsung's P2 / T10 Bluetooth players get priced, dated again


Although we were previously led to believe that Samsung's YP-P2 and YP-T10 Bluetooth players would be landing in the US last month, the ship date seems to have slipped just a bit. A revised release from Sammy (shown after the break) now shows both units being available here in America sometime in October, and more importantly, prices were also divulged. As for the P2, it'll be available in black, wine red or white hues for $199 (4GB) and $249 (8GB), while the T10 will ship in midnight black, mystic purple, maple red, white cloud and lime yellow for $149 (4GB) and $199 (8GB). Hold tight, the duo should (finally) be landing anytime.

Hands-on with the Samsung T10 PMP at IFA


When we first heard about the "animated menus" of the T10, we had our doubts, but after playing around with the youth-oriented PMP, we've decided it gets a thumbs up. The ultralight, ultrathin media player felt practically weightless in our hands, but its screen was bright and crisp, and those frenetic, PaRappa the Rapper-like animations definitely make for an interesting UI -- certainly like no other player on the market right now. Check out the gallery for pictures which will shock and amaze.

Samsung's P2 and T10 Bluetooth players: Stateside in September


Ready for it? We've got the release date for Samsung's tasty new Bluetooth media players with FM tuners: the YP-P2 and YP-T10. September. Ok, it's not so much a date as a range, but mark your calendars anyway and get to saving. How much? Good question, Sammy ain't saying, but you'd best start combing your pockets for the couple of hundie they'll demand. Think about it: the P2 (pictured) brings a proper 16:9 widescreen, 3-inch touchscreen display with up to 8GB of audio/video-hungry flash while the T10 wraps 4GB of your audio and video in a 0.3-inch, super thin dose of sex-ay. Just check the gallery and full specs after the break if you need more convincing.

iRiver panders to the low-end with T50 DAP


While we might like iRiver best for its Clix and W10 hawterness, the company hasn't forgotten those poor unfortunate souls who can't afford to drop a few hundies on a PMP device. To that end, iRiver is busting out the T50 player today, which runs on a single AAA battery, boasts 52 hours of playback, sports 1GB of flash memory, and has a teensy 1-inch CSTN LCD. The player is a followup to iRiver's T10, which came out in 2005, and the T50 thankfully does away with a good bit of bulk and frumpiness of that player. Codec support is solid, with MP3 / WMA DRM10 / OGG, and even BMP veiwing for good measure. Of course, iRiver has an FM tuner and voice recorder in here as well. The T50 will be out on April 15th in white and black versions, both retailing for 9,980 yen ($85 US).

iRiver Japan announces 2GB T10

iRiver Japan is Reigncom's only region we've seen make the announcement today, but they've got a 2GB version of their lime green T10 due out there for ¥19,980 (about $170 US). Doesn't look too different than the MP3, WMA, OGG, ASF playing, FM tuning, voice recording device we're well used to otherwise, and it's still got that same damned single-cell AAA battery, making it one of the more capacious players to take said cells. Expect these to go on sale the 26th of this month over yonder in the land of the rising sun -- who knows (if and) when, elsewhere.
