I am telling you, these fellows are crazy…they integrated a 5 MP camera in what appears to be a rather common looking portable media player. Carav electronics says nothing to me, since they kept a low profile on the market.

Still, they have recently popped out the CMV9301 PMP, which looks more than decent, but not on such a high level so as to be able to compete with the heavy names in the industry. It reveals a TFT 262k colors of 3 inch, and (wow!) 3 inch is cool for a device of its kind, with a resolution of 960 x 240 pixels. Besides that, the built-in SD card slot for memory expansion allows an expansion of the internal memory storage of up to 4GB a piece. The hard drive support is of 1.8-inch 20G - 100G Fat32 format.
Nevertheless, the best feature of the portable media player is its extra camcorder function that can be used as a high resolution webcam. The 5.0 Mega pixel can perform capture photo with photo size, picture quality, white balance, multi-snap shot, 4X digital zoom, photo effect function and more.
Not to mention it enhances clarity when taking pictures in a dark environment using a built-in flash light that reaches 1.5 meter.

When it comes to its capabilities, it can do a bunch of interesting stuff, like dealing with AVI, MOV, MP4, ASF video format, but it can transform many video formats with sound, as well as offer multi format file for MP3, WMA, PCM, ADPCM, WAV to open the music file formats.

And if you want to view the media content on a larger screen, you can use the playback audio and video feature on TV directly with RCA cable, which is claimed to be quite close to a DVD quality. If not, the simple sharing of the files can be done via the built-in speaker system, without the need of putting on an earphone.

The voice recording is done through microphone in WAV and ACT format file. The player's sound performances are said to be easily customized with one of the built-in equalizer modes. And whenever the owner wants to, it ca use the player as a genuine e-Book reader as the device offers support for TXT files. The player gets juiced up through a built-in li-polymer battery, rated to last for about 10 hours of music and 4 hours of video content.

Sadly, no price tag available yet!
