Hot Stuff! iRiver Unveils D27 And W7 PMPs!

iRiver keeps on popping out cool portable media players. This time, the giant Korean electronics company decided to release two devices, D27 and W7.

The former is much more than a media player, as it can also perform the job of an electronic dictionary. IT reveals a nice WQVGA screen display with 260k colors and a 480 x 272 pixels resolution. And there is more to come. For a better handling of the device, the makers have added a QWERY keyboard to the recipe, making the player look like one of those cool Chinese UMPCs.

Besides that, the PMP is bundled with a lot of geeky capabilities, such as dealing with lots of popular file formats on the market. Therefore, the player does a pretty good job when it comes to decoding music files like MP3, WMA, ASF, OGG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, as well as TXT files and more. File transfer management works via the latest USB 2.0 interface. The D27 PMP' s battery life was rated at about 27 hours. Size is also a bonus, as the PMP only measures 163.4 x 83.6 x21.5mm and weighs a mere 315 grams.

The second new entry in the company's portfolio wears a spy name, the W7, and can do some really nifty stuff. To start with its simple, yet voguish design patterns, it will surely draw some attention. The player comes equipped with a built-in TFT LCD touch screen with 260k colors. It sports the same 480 x 272 pixels resolution and comes packed in 4GB and 8GB internal storage capacities. However, if the integrated memory proves to be not enough there is a built-in miniSD slot for an extra boost.

The PMP' s sound performances are also customizable with one of the 10 integrated EQ modes. In terms of file formats, the players is able to handle WMA, AVI, JPG, TXT, CSD, SWF and more. For easier file transfer, the PMP also uses the latest USB 2.0 version. Notably, its autonomy is rated at up to 20 hours of media content. The PMP measures about 110.5 x 52.6 x 15.7mm and weighs no more than 105 grams, just about enough to fir in the palm of your hand, with a little bit of effort.
