The iriver PMP series offers a striking design, 3.5" colour screen, a Linux-based operating system and support for all standard video and audio formats.

iriver, the leading provider of innovative portable audio and video solutions in the digital entertainment segment, has launched its new Portable Media Player (PMP). The perfect travelling companion, the iriver PMP is the most versatile entertainment device available on the market today, with the ability to watch movies, listen to music, check out the latest news headlines on the radio and even view your latest snapshots, since shots taken on a digital camera can be downloaded to the PMP in seconds. Available in 20 and 40GB versions, the Linux®-based operating system sets the iriver PMP apart from the personal media centres (PMCs) currently on the market by offering the ability to play MP3, ASF, WMA and WAV audio files, as well as numerous video formats, including AVI in MPEG4, DivX and XviD.

The iriver PMP offers a market leading array of features and functions including: a built-in FM tuner; microphone; USB on-the-go function for direct data transfer from other mobile products; and a line-in to record straight from external audio sources. The 3.5" display shows up to 260,000 colours and displays films, photos or e books in crystal-clear resolution. Users also have the option of watching movies or viewing photo slideshows on a TV screen (with no loss of resolution) via a TV output channel (NTSC or PAL).

Move over iPod Photo, these bad boys are more then likely going to take over, with XviD support, they have my vote (and maybe my money) for now.

That sounds like a kick ass product. Let´s hope the price is somewhat reasonable.

I've just purchased a pmp-140. Works great. Can anybody tell if there is a size limit on video clips. I have video clip that is 1 hr 40 min long though the iriver pmp-140 only plays 1 hr 20 min of it.
