So apparently the
viliv
P1 personal media player is doing so well
in
the US, that the company has already announced plans to release their new model, the P2, Stateside as well. The P2
takes all the P1's multi-codec goodness (MPEG-1/2/4, H.264, DivX, WMV 7/8/9, XviD, MP3, WMA, OGG, AC-3, and WAV),
subtracts the iPod resemblance, and adds a 60GB option as well as an optional GPS receiver. Powered by a 400MHz AMD
processor, the P2 runs on Windows CE 5.0 and sports a large 4.3-inch, 800 x 480 widescreen LCD, and also can also act
as a USB 2.0 host device. Expect to see these for sale sometime in the middle of August, although pricing has yet to be
announced.
