Would you like to have a remote-like MP3 player? I know I would because I have so many problems with the bigger ones. They always get somehow out of my jeans and then of course break down to pieces on the ground. But even if it is little and futuristic, an MP3 player must come with a set of enhanced features in order to fit the up-to-date lifestyle.

An industrial designer - Marc Newsome has just showcased his latest invention �C the Signeo SN-A800 MP3 player, which is just 6.5mm (0.26 �nch) thick and comes in three color models �C the Black one, �70s Blue, or the summer�'s �70s Yellow.

In spite of its great design, the player doesn't impress when it comes to features as you will see. It sports an integrated FM tuner and can record from FM to MP3 and is already available for purchase in two storage capacity options �C the 512MB for $180 or the 1GB for $250 (1GB).

I'll give another one, a player which somehow resembles the famous iPod and comes with a 4GB storage capacity and Samsung Electronics-branded features.

The YP-Z5 Music Jukebox, launched previously this month, is a slim, lightweight flash-memory player that sports a 3-D sound capability, a long-lasting rechargeable battery for up to 35 hours, and comes with several music subscription services such as MTV's Urge, Napster, Rhapsody and Yahoo.

The 1.8" color TFT-LCD screen is one of the largest in its class and enables you to view photographs and album art, as you can also create slideshows with dynamic effects, as well as pan and zoom in on digital photos. The player benefits from an innovative touch pad interface.

If you are interested, look it up because it is already on the shelves at $249 for the 4GB version and less for the others - $149 - 1GB and $199 - 2GB.
