iRiver Preps Linux-based Media Player

Posted by michael on from the holds-thousands-of-baby-pictures dept.

Mr_Silver writes "Infosync is reporting that iRiver is soon to release the Linux based PMP-120 media player which through its colour screen can support MP3, ASF, Ogg Vorbis, JPEG, BMP, AVI, MP4, DivX 3.x, 4.x, 5.x, XviD, MPEG4 SP, Advanced SP and MPEG1. Technically very cool (even more so if it is hackable), but really really ugly. iRiver really should learn how to design nice looking hardware from the experts."

    20GB is enough for me to fit my photo album, yet alone my MP3 collection...

    Apple have made some fairly good looking computers, but am I the only one to find the iPod rather ugly? I can't understand what people see in it.
