That's pretty interesting. Not bad. I'd be interested in knowing what it uses for power (ie: AA batteries, some sort of lithium, etc.).

It's also hard to tell how you navigate through the playlists.

At $350, this could be quite impressive.

Hmm.. Look very promissing; especially for the price point... I wish they had more on the interface though, or at least a real picture of it.. Looks like vaporware despite them saying they'll be available next week..

@dionysus: Don't know if this is vapor. The company has been there since a while selling (good) USB and firewire external drives, so the company is solid.

I ordered one however and was told it would be there end of this month. WIll let you know once and if I receive it. j.
