We received a pretty plain email today from JXD and attached to it was a package of images, as of late JXD performance, as a MP4 maker, has been somewhat mixed, their JXD 980 show some serious promise, but the overall poor UI killed the true possibility of what the Sunplus 8000 chip could do.

Well enter the JXD 990, this player apparently, in my internet searching of this player, has been a hidden secret for a bit, not sure what the big deal was, but anyways here are the first renderings of the JXD 990. It will use the Sunplus 8000 chipset, which can perform very well for video, although not as good as the 720p chipset.

Overall, apart from the looks of the player, we think this will be a pretty similar player to that of the JXD 980. it looks to have a 4.3? screen (LTPS maybe), 2MP camera, TV in and TV out, support hi resolution videos (higher than that of current RK27xx based players), multitude of audio formats also.

Expect this player to be out soon, in time for the Chinese New Year and if sold on MP4 Nation, the 8GB would be less than $100.
