Swedish Valei Computer intros ZC-HV0105 media streamer
It's hard to tell exactly what's so special about Swedish Valei Computer's ZC-HV0105, but we'll do our best to translate. This self-proclaimed Home Media Center looks an awful lot like a jazzed up router at first glance, and appears to tout a front LCD, DVI / component / S-Video / composite outputs, 720p / 1080i upscaling, support for an internal HDD, USB 2.0 connectivity, Ethernet and a slew of audio outs to boot. Best of all, this piece will play nice with a whole bucketful of formats including MP3, WMA, OGG, WMV, DivX, XviD and MPEG1/2/4. Sadly, we've no idea on the price, and worse still, we've a really bad feeling about it ever coming stateside. [Via Readle Gadgets]
PMC200, the newest media player from Sweden
With Jens of Sweden knocked out (although it still has an active website, the company hasn't released a new product in over eight months), it looks like Swedish Valei Computer may be poised to claim the crown of the Swedish portable media industry. This Stockholm-based newcomer has just released its latest media player, the PMC200, which comes with a host of features that you might expect: a 3.5-inch screen, a 16:9 aspect ratio, DivX / AVI / MPEG / DAT playback, video out (NTSC and PAL support), four hours of battery life for video (up to 10 hours for audio), USB 2.0, the ability to read text files, and if that weren't enough, it can record video as well. We've got zero information on how many Swedish krona kronor you'll have to spend for the pleasure, nor when you might be able to obtain one, nor if SVC will be selling these little players outside the kingdom.[Via Svartlinks]
