    Sony S640, S740 S-Series Walkmans Have TV-out, Long Battery Life

    Yesterday we argued that the old-school PMP might be dead, but Sony sure doesn't think so. It's just updated its S-series with two 2-inch LCD Walkmans that include the new 720x480 TV-out and noise-canceling features built into the upcoming A-Series. More »

    Sony A-Series Is the Thinnest Walkman Yet, Has OLED Screen

    The pretty player has a 2.8-inch OLED screen (240x400), FM radio, TV-out, noise canceling, and is beautifully thin at 7.2mm. Oh, and it only weighs 2.2 ounces. But unlike the failed X-Series, the A has no touch screen or Wi-Fi. More »

    First Aluminum iRiver E200 Pics

    iRiver has some of the most stylish tech gear this side of Apple, but the upcoming E200 player looks boringly similar to its E100 predecessor, despite a new thinner, all-metal design, and a larger screen. More »

    Iriver P35 Touchscreen PMP With Wi-Fi Is Coming to America

    We're so used to gadgets afraid to leave the safety of Japan or Korea to travel to our unforgiving west that it's always a treat when it unexpectedly happens—especially a gadget like iriver's P35 PMP. More »

    Samsung P3 Media Player Review: Here Comes a Nano Beater

    Samsung's new flagship P3 PMP isn't an iPod touch killer—despite the touchscreens, the comparison doesn't hold up. In a shoving match against the iPod nano, however, the P3 trumps it in just about every respect.

    SmartQ 5 PMP Swallows Several iPhones, Could Take On Cowon P5 With Lower Pricing

    Chinese electronics companies taking design cues from Apple is nothing new, so we won't dwell on it here. Instead, the SmartQ 5 could (stress could) match the Cowon P5 with similar features and better pricing. More »

    Archos 5 Lightning Review

    The Gadget: Archos 5, the touchscreen "internet media tablet" with HD video viewing, game support and web surfing, is poised to take on the comparatively puny-in-screen, puny-in-storage iPod touch. More »

    More Details From Gizmodo's Apple Interview

    Our interview with Apple's Eddie Cue and Greg Joswiak gave us some juicy info on the iPod nano, iPod touch and iTunes 8. Go to their respective links to see the behind-the-scenes info we just added. [iPod nano, iPod touch and iTunes 8]

    Confirmed: Nike+ Only Works With 2nd Gen iPod Touch, Not iPhone or 1st Gen iTouch

    Our interview with Apple confirmed something we suspected in our liveblog and our hands on with the device: that the Nike+ integration only works with this version. Owners of the first-gen iPod touch, the iPhone and iPhone 3G are locked out, because of the technology required to connect the device to the receiver in your shoe without using the standard dock connector dongle. Apple also said that even if you shove in the dongle to the unsupported devices, nothing will happen, so we're out of luck until some hackers get to working on enabling this "unofficially."

    New iPod Shuffle: Same Chip-Clip, Now With Nano's Hand-Me-Down Colors

    At this point, the housing can't get much smaller without coming with a serious child-safety choking warning etched into the back—but obviously not wanting to leave any iPod untouched today, Apple spread some more saturated ROYGBIV love to the shuffles (the nano's old digs, actually), ditching the lighter pastels. They remain $50/$70 for 1GB/2GB.
