Hitachi HMP-1 MP3 player

Hitachi is finally getting into the MP3 game with their HMP-1, a 256MB flash-based player with an SD expansion slot.  Nothing otherwise too remarkable about it — it plays MP3 and WMA files, has an FM tuner and weighs about 30g without the required two AA batteries.  It's a bit of an uninspired design if you ask us — if we had to guess, they've probably just rebadged somebody else's player.
