The H800 has been making some slight rumblings, apart from some specs and a few pictures of the OS it would be using, there wasn't much info on the H800, till now, forum member nlite found these pictures of what looks x to be the H800 prototype.
Some things we do know about this player is that it will be linux based (duh!), 4.3" touch screen (480 x 272 resolution), run on an Ingenic JZ4750 chipset, we hope that it will have 128mb ram, as opposed to 64mb ram which the same chipset based B53Wifi had.
Cube have not given any release date or pricing for this new player.

Well i love retro styled things, if done right they can look really good, but getting it right is a hard thing to do, to make something look retro but also up-to-date is a hard thing to achieve - unfortunately for the Baidu B829 they did not have the skills
Baidu, in the linked article, are sick of being just re-branders, taking a stock design and slapping their name on, so they are committed to creating their own unique designs and yes, i think they should be committed after this atrocity.
This is what they have come up with, now i do not really know if they were going for a retro look or actually think that this is a good design for a media player but either way its awful, early eighties design style does not fit well for a portable media player at all. If you dare, have a lo
Many people are probably familiar with Gemei's A320, just they probably know it under its rebrand name of the Dingoo A320. Gemei this week released the first confirmed image of their follow player, the A330, by the looks of it, seems to incorportae some of the Gemei X760+ look along with the gamepad layout of the A320. There isn't any information yet on what processor it will use,but I hope it does use the newer Inegeni chipsets. Lets also hope that Gemei release a SDK kit as they did with the A320 model.
It didn't take long after the release of the Ainol V3000HD for both Gemei and RAmos to announce their new HD players. The two will be releasing what look to be very similar (both internal hardware and external looks) players. The RAmos T9 (pictured above) and the Gemei X690HD (pictured below) will have screens capable of a display resolution of 800 x 480, much like the V3000HD. Its fair to assume that Gemei will be using the Ingenic Chinachips 720p chip, just like the V3000HD. What isn't clear is what chip the T9 will be using, i assume it will also be using the same chip as the V3000HD and the X690HD, but RAmos does have a preference for using Rockchip and their player state to have a new 24bit dual core chip that hasn't been previously used, so maybe the T9 maybe using the new RK28xx
Ainol seems to be hard at work at developing new and more innovative players, unlike other Chinese MP4 makers who are keen on capitalizing on the touch screen trend, Ainol is sticking to traditional push button navigation, but emphasizing on style and functionality.
The V2000SL, with the SL standing for Slim, is in fact only 10mm thick, with a sleek alloy back, this design is without a doubt an Apple inspired concept, even the front, we can't really give Ainol any props here. However they do stick with using a 3.0" LTPS screen, which is by far one of the best types of screens that any portable media player could have. Sadly we don't believe that Ainol will be using a WVGA LTPS screen like they are using on their new V3000, but rather they seem to be using their standard TFT LTPS screen,
Ainol dropped us a short email today, informing us of their latest player, little info was passed to us in the email apart from its name, the V3000 and the fact that it would have a 4.3" LTPS screen, at first i wasn't really impressed, 4.3" screen size players have now started to become common for MP4 players, it wasn't till i realized that it was a LTPS Screen.
The screen will support a whopping 800x480 screen resolution, more than twice that of any similar Chinese MP4 player currently on the market. The V3000 would place Ainol in the same league for screen quality as that of the Cowon A3.
Ainols website gives little more information other than the screen specification, along with this emailed picture we got, we have little more information to go on. However from what we do know o
