Ok so by the end of the video you will probably be wondering why we are selling this player, because of its very low price and very good video performance, well better than performance than the RK27xx chipset and the older ingenic chipset.
Those watching may be disappointed with the other features, but i want to stress, this player is ONLY good for video, although the audio quality from the Sunplus 8000 chip is surprisingly good, the music player, being so poorly developed, make its pointless to be used as an audio player.
Anyways, good budget, hi res video support player - everything else, this player is absolutely horrible for (hope i made my point clear). Who know JXD may release a firmware that greatly improves the UI, we can always dream.

Well i finally got round to making a video for the new S:Flo LITE, i do need to apologize for the lighting, i forgot to change a setting on my camera causing the camera to record in more of a yellow tinge :( anyways watch the video to get an idea of what the difference between this and the S:FLo are (not to much).
Also a big thank you to Maderin1 (sorry for pronouncing that wrong again), he had made a slightly alerted simply blue theme that was made for the S:Flo, for the Nationite S:Flo, i will be releasing a new firmware on Friday (along with the OS-81 new firmware) with this new theme, corrected Startup/Shutdown and improved English translation for the S:Flo Lite.
Would recommend watching the HD version of the review.

It seems Ainol's Optimus Prime (V6000HDA) is making way for its second generation leader, Rodimus Prime (the V6000HDB)....i didn't make that up, jump to the imp3 page and that's how they are comparing the V6000HDA and the V6000HDB. I really don't see how Opimus being killed by Megatron and the subsequent rise of Rodimus Prime has anything to do with MP4 Players, especially in this case, what i can tell you is that the V6000HDB is a budget version of the V6000HDA.
The V6000HDB will use the same powerful Ingenic/Chinachip 720p, which can actually play videos in a 720p resolution with little to no problem (i know i am still shocked at seeing a claim by a China chipmaker actually not being totally false). The V6000HDB will be dropping the high res 800x480 screen that is found on the V3000HD
I previously announced that the Nationite S:Flo's packing would under go a change from its previous design, we choose for the S:Flo Lite to also come in a similar, but slightly altered, packing as the Nationite S:Flo. So now that the mad Christmas rush is over i have had the time to snap some snazzy pictures of the the New S:Flo box and the S:Flo Lite box.
Although the design of the packing in which a player comes in can't change if a player will be liked or not, it does add to the players credibility as being a serious device to be considered even in comparison to major brand name items. We hope you like the new slick design.
Off course for those that don't have the Lite you can check out its nice fancy back design, ok its the same as the S:Flos, but with the words LITE smacked on
I received this last week the new JXD 980, a 4.3" screen player which uses the new Sunplus 8000 chipset. The Sunplus 8000 chipset is one of the new generation chipsets capable of playing higher resolution videos, the advertised resolution that is can max handle is 1280x720, other chipsets claim this also and consider them capable of playing '720p' resolution. The Sunplus 8000 can play high resolution videos at a high frame rate and retain audio sync, but not at the advertised resolution of 1280x720.
The overall build quality of the JXD 980 isn't the best that i have seen, the front does look nice, but the buttons are cheap looking and feel cheap and they all have a very clicky sound to them. The back is not that nice, although it looks nice from a bit of distance, when you touch it th
Yeah like no one didn't see this coming from a mile away, i am only kicking myself for not have kept the line i wrote in the original X690HD/T9 blog post on how Onda would probably have one our and in the same case as the VX767, drats, could have done 'told you so'.
Anyways its going to come with a 800x480 resolution screen with the new ingenics chip, the 720p, so expect very hi res video playback, but just not at 720p, the chip will also be able to decode at 10mb/sec. I am still waiting for my V3000HD sample, once i get that i will compare grow these 720p processors really stack.
No word on pricing or availability, but expect more details soon.

Well not that this is to much of a shocker, but Onda is releasing a newer 'version' of the Onda VX767, the VX767L, this is the second reincarnation of the original VX767, previously we had the VX767LE, which was basically the same as the VX767, except the TV out was dropped in favour of dual audio ports. Now what does dropping the E from the LE mean, well it actually means pretty much a new player in the shell of the VX767.
Like the VX777LE, Onda has redone the player to run on the RK2706 chipset, so it will have all the standard characteristic of RK2706 player, but will also come with TV out and a FM transmitter. One downside to this move is that the JZ4740 chip which ran the VX767 and VX767LE was better for video, it could provide smoother playback for higher resolution movies. One on
We are again proud to be one of the few places where you can get the Fiio PS1110 WalkBox, the slick and slim speaker provides some seriosly pleasant audio. The dual speakers provide quality audio, suitable for use within a small radius, the speakers do produce a good volume, especially considering their size. This speaker is of quality, something that you would expect as Fiio are the makers of the Meizu mDock, whcih itself is a fantastic compact speaker/dock set.
The WalkBox has a metallic front and a solid plastic back, the overall build and finishing is also very good and would make for a nice addition to anyone's travel accessories. The WalkBox can be powered either by USB (wall charger or from a PC) or can be powered with the use of two AAA batteries. It also has its own volume co

Well again not much of surprise here, as we work closely with Fiio we again have opted to get our own 'edition' of the very popular Fiio E5 portable amp. So whats the difference between the normal and the Nationite Edition, well nothing hardwarewise and very little cosmetically, we are just adding the 'Nationite Edition' logo to the front.
All our Fiio E5 from now on will be the special Nationite Edition version, we will have by the end of December (hopefully as early as the 25th) 500 of these in stock. They will share the same retail box and same retail accessories as the normal E5.
Buy one today for $24.50
