Causing confusion is the QiGi U1000 Smartbook which is actually a nifty looking 5 inch MID.
It has a 5 inch WVGA touchscreen and runs Windows Mobile 6.1. It’s powered by a 624MHz Marvell PXA310 processor and has 256MB of RAM.
Bells and whistles include a respectable 3.2 megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi, quad band GSM/EDGE connectivity and microSD support up to 32GB.
Not to be outdone, it also serves as a regular phone. In China it’ll set you back 2280 Yuan / $334.

However you see Hello Kitty, be it kitsch, cool or crap, you can’t say they’re not working for their money.
Here’s the latest of their endless products, a pair of official Hello Kitty headphones with glittering pink and white crystals. At $83 there’s a chance (or a hope) that they could sound pretty good too.

Well we have to thank Coldsun for making such a nice program. His custom UI runs atop of the normal WinCE UI and make accessing program very easy. The UI is very easily customized and additional apps can be added.
We also have ColdSun permission to have this program preloaded on the Nationite MIDNite Xpress, but just to clarify, the player will not startup with this UI, just the program will be on the player for you to use.
You can find out more about this UI at Coldsuns website http://www.coldsuncreations.com

Is slimmer better? Discuss on the MP4Nation Forum.
Scosche have launched what seem to be their favourite earphones to date, the IRD650m's which they're calling their flagship model.
The earphones have the choice of single or dual flanged silicone inserts which they say are uber comfortable and they're aiming then at audio enthusiasts.
They boast noise isolation and and inline mic for Apple-based tomfoolery and the chord is a whopping skipping rope lengthed 52 inches long.
They cost $98 and are available now.

Well Happy Thanksgiving to all you Yanks, hope you are well rested and have a full belly and for the rest of the world hope your enjoying your Friday.
Newman, a company that seems to have a serious phobia for touch screens, is yet again releasing a rather nice and thin player. At its thickest point the player is only 9.8mm thick, pretty impressive consider that it has a 5.0" LTPS screen. I am assuming that this anorexic player will be using the CC1600 chipset, which mean it can handle avi movies upto 1280 x 720 resolution.
Now although this looks like a good player, we're not going to get it, don't get me wrong i like CC1600 players, like our Nationite OS-72HR, but Newman has a bad habit of not releasing any firmware updates for their players, which really isn't going to cut it for us.
The A18HD will is out (or will be soon) in China, no word on pricing or what memory size variations this will come in.
Looks like the new T11TE, a Telechips based player, may possible the holy grail for video format playback support.
