Lookie here! Clix 2! Iriver, the maker of, err, iRiver, now wants to push the new Clix 2. It's actually out on the market. The device comes with the same built-in FM tuner, voice recorder and supports MP3, WMA, ASF and OGG music files, as well as MPEG-4 "simple profile" QVGA
video.

The upgrade comes with a sleeker design and also with some interesting features. But it's still a flash-based 4 GB MP3 player that will play your MTV spooky videos with style, show photo and text, read content from SD cards with its integrated card reader.
The new stuff is actually the flash support, meaning that you will be able to download flash content from the Web. I'm talking about games, videos and photo slideshows. This probably means that you will also be able to download and playback YouTube videos.

The Clix 2 boasts a 2.2-inch (56 mm) color screen that is larger than other screens from similar devices. And maybe due to the AMOLED screen technology, it will probably overtake its predecessor when it comes to image quality.

It also maintains its intuitive interface. Its touchscreen lets you push the screen in order to navigate through the player's menu. Don't push too hard though. There are no navigation buttons, therefore there's a lot of space that could be affected by various stuff like your big intrusive thumb. There's still no word on whether it comes with the "old" Clix accessories (cradle, FM transmitter and car charger). The device is available for 139,99 UK pounds (around 275 US $). Maybe iRiver is finally ready to launch their Clix 3.
