Recent study shows that China has taken down 30% of the MP3 player market worldwide. But the designs of China mp3 players are look very similar to either Apple iPod or Creative Zen or some mobile phone design. Sometimes I wonder, China has how many own original design.

Lately, Shenzhen Smart has released a 2â€ LCD mp3 player MP4-2010A. From the casing, it has exactly the similar buttons to Sony Ericsson W810 mobile phone. Besides that, this player has the same functionality as most of the players in China market. It plays MPEG, WAV, ASF, MOV AVI, WMV and WMA format. It has a built in speaker and FM radio functionality.

iPhone SDK February 2008

Korabi — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 15:17:31 +0000

Today, Apple CEO Steve Jobs posted an open letter on their web site mentioning that Apple will release a SDK for iPhone and iPod Touch. Let me explain SDK stands for software development kit. It is a tool to let software developers to develop applications based on the standard example and API released by the suppliers. Without the SDK, software developers will not have the proper platform to develop software, but they could do it by illegally hack into the system.

So, hacking isnâ€™t what Apple wants to see, they also canâ€™t any stand the pressure from the community. With the SDK, more cool software will be released in the next 6 months, which would definitely boost the sales of iPhone.

A successful example is the Nokia Internet Tablet N800 series. Nokia has fully open source and that has boost the development of application to work on their platform. Nokia now just focus on the development of the hardware and leave the rest software development trouble to the community.

Back to the story, Apple will only release the SDK until next February. So meantime, we can expect more apps will hack their way onto iPhone. For the SDK, that is surely a long wait for iPhone and iPod Touch fans.

While all the tech sites recently all focus on the latest 6th generation iPod, but Microsoft has already prepared to launch their very own MP3 player – Zune 2.0. The official launching date will be on 16th Octorber. From the picture shown below, seem like they have changed the navigation wheel into a weird sharp. Maybe this is a good way to differentiate iPod and Zune.

Zune 2.0 will come in 3 colors, black, pink and red. I assume there will be more colors joining in. There are 2 types of storage for Zune, the flash based and the hard drive type. The Flash based will in 4GB and 8GB, while the hard disk Zune will be in 80GB.

Zune version “Get a Mac”

Korabi — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 10:00:15 +0000

A “Get a Mac” spoof video clip by Microsoft. Microsoft claims that it is easier to upload music onto Zune with just one simple click than Ipod. And not so easy to be scratched than Ipod too. But I still think getting a brown color Zune is not a good idea. There should be other better color for Zune to be.
