iRiver Announces A New Ogg/MP3 Player

An anonymous reader writes "CD Freaks and Mobile mag are reporting that iRiver has unveiled a new Ogg-capable mp3 player. Featuring 20 GB of HD space and USB 2.0 connectivity, the iHP-120 might just be the answer to the question all us Apple-fearing geeks have been asking... Although the new product has yet to show up on their website, the older model iHP-100 is similar in design but with half the storage space (10gb). New software will be released in October to update it and other players from iRiver with ogg compatibility as well."

    I love the timing on the topic right before this: "Few Takers For RIAA's 'Clean Slate'".

    If you 'fear' Apple then you've got a lot more problems than just finding an Ogg-enabled music player....

      As regards portable music playback devices, don't compare apples and ogg ranges.

  4. Fear Apple? by vonFinkelstien · · Score: 3, Funny
    If you are a worshiper of Apple and have a proper fear of the Apple god, then why would you want an MP3 player that has not been touched by the hand of god?

    From Wester's 3rd New International Dictionary:
    fear 4. to have a reverential awe of (e.g., fear of God; God fearing)

    Or did you mean afraid of Apple?
