The iPhoney Award

Judging by the fact that the new Nano looks a bit like an iPod knockoff itself, we thought it would only be fitting to show off the iPhoneys, a contest for those who create the most blatant iPod/iPhone ripoffs of all. Current front runners include the Meizu m8, Microsoft Zune and Teclast t59. They always say good artists copy, great artists steal. [oobject]

Teclast TL-29 PMP: Pretty Face, Pure of Heart

Gizloco — Wed, 06 Sep 2006 14:39:22 EDT

Teclast's R&D division has come up with the TL-T29, a portable media player that actually is pretty eye-pleasing. Also appreciated is that it supports so many gosh darn codecs, including the usual (MP3, WMA, etc.) and the esoteric (FLAC and Ogg). It does all of this with a 2.0-inch, 220x176-pixel resolution window to the world. You'll also find Teclast RBS Surround Sound and Teclast Stone3D Surround Sound. I guess "Gimmicky Audio Trickery" was already taken by some other company.

Battery life is expected to be in the 15-hour range for this portable media player, or PMP as the kids say. The 4GB version will retail for $125 when it comes out. – Nicholas Deleon

The recent trend of dual core CPUs in laptops is making its way into MP3 players in the form of the Teclast T19. One of the cores, the Telechips TCC 760, is dedicated to audio decoding. The other core, a Wolfson WM8750, is used to convert the digital signal to analog, which is piped to your headphones. The result of having two dedicated chips means better sounding music that's cleaner and has less noise.

The other specs are:

...a 1.9-inch 260k colors 220 × 176 pixels TFT screen which is suitable for you to watch MPEG1 Video, RBS Surround and Stone3D sound effects. It has also FM tuner, line-in recording functionality, eBook viewer, voice recording, dictionary and calendar.

The T19 is only available in China for RMB 599 and 699 for the 512 MB and 1G versions.
