Teclast has released a few more details, and another screenshot of it’s upcoming portable media player. The Teclast M66 will include high-def resolution capable of 720p using the RK2806 chipset by Rockchips. The M66 has recently been given a makeover by Teclast, and looks a bit better now with a row of touch-sensitive buttons along the bottom of the player. It includes a 5-inch low temperature poly-solicon screen.

The player will support H.264 MKV, RM / RMVB, and AVI video support.

• Capacity: 1, 2, and 4GB
• 1″ OLED display
• Audio: MP3, WMA, and Ogg
• RDS Tuner
• 15 hours of battery life
• Dimensions: 25.4 x 80 x 11mm

I’m realling digging the screen.  It definitely seems like a step forward from the iPod shuffle.

The Aigo A215 MP3 player offers 2GB’s of storage capacity and an amazing 50 hour battery life. It does look like your standard stick memory stick style MP3 player.

It supports WMA9 and WMA10 for your DRM loaded music files.

It doesn’t appear to have a North American release date, but the UK can find them for £70.

This is pretty neat. It is a radio that doesn’t even need a true crystal. It is such an old design, and does work.

The trouble with such a simple receiver (no variable capacitor) is that there is little selectivity and the listener is bombarded by 2 or more stations at once – a mixing of all of the signals within a range of frequencies. To fix it would add complexity, but it’s not hard to do.

For my antenna, I just have an 8′ wire tacked up to the wall. For my ground, I have an 8′ wire precariously plugged into the ground on an electrical outlet (I wouldn’t recommend it, but it does work).

Here is the How To on making your own.

Gizmodo seems to think that the Sony Mylo is the greatest thing sinced sliced bread. I say, “Hold on, wait up, I bet it’s all proprietary crap”.

It actually isn’t too bad. It will work with Google Talk, and Yahoo messenger, and they say it works with iTunes. It does use my favorite browser (Opera), so that’s always neat.

I like the looks of the Logitech Wireless DJ Music System. It is very sleek looking. How it works is a much better question. I usually question the ease of use of a product from a computer accessory maker.

The Wireless DJ Music System connects the PC to a home-entertainment center or speaker system using Logitech´s Music Anywhere™ wireless technology. The system plays any PC audio format, including MP3, iTunes® (AAC), WMA, Internet radio, and podcasts. And the stylish, long-range Wireless DJ remote, with its display and scroll wheel, makes it easy to navigate an entire music collection from the couch, the dining-room table, the bedroom — anywhere.

Here is some more info on this.

Although I haven’t heard anything good about digital radio (it seems to be somewhat of a scam), the BBC is working on an attachement for MP3 players that would play digital radio stations.

There is no expected release date at this time.

Speaking about the plan for the gadget, the BBC spokesman said the broadcaster was carrying out feasibility studies to see how easy it would be to make and market the clip-on gadget. The study was also looking at the design of the product and what it would do.

“We have a duty to make sure digital radio is relevant and clearly portable MP3 players are a massive area of growth,” he said.

The plug-in gadget would not be limited to playing the BBC digital radio stations. Versions might also be available for mobile phones and cars.

Toshiba just announced a new line of gigabeat flash based DAPs today in two storage capacities and “cosmetic designs.” The new audio players feature 1.1″ OLED color screens, 14 hours of battery life, a built-in FM tuner, and voice recorder. The supported file formats are WMA, MP3, WAV, and JPEG images.

“gigabeat Flash players are perfect for consumers who are looking for a simple, compact player that allows them to listen to their music wherever they go,” said Yoshi Uchiyama, Group Vice President of Toshiba’s Digital A/V Group. “gigabeat Flash players offer stylish cosmetic designs and ample storage capacities that are ideal for music lovers who enjoy an active lifestyle.”

Overall, nothing too exciting from Toshiba. Look for these overpriced, boring, DAPs around January of 2006 for $129 for 512MB, and $179 for 1GB.

iLounge has reviewed the Incase Music Belt for your iPod. They seemed to like it, but it looks suspiciously like a fanny pack to me!

It does look somewhat nice though, for a fanny pack. It uses a nylon belt, and can be adjusted for even the biggest of folks.

You can pick one up for $25 bucks here.

Full Review (get’s a B+)

Well, here is another strange one from China. It is the Luckystar A228. It sells at a discount since it only comes with 2 corners. It kind of looks like cookie monster got confused, and bit off the two corners.

It includes an OLED screen, and plays MP3/WMA files.

Pretty boring looking.

Thanks dapreview.
