Cnet favorite MP3 reviewer Jasmine France got a chance to go hands on with the ibiza Rhapsody.
And for a first generation product Jasmine France gives it a positive overview.
“First, considering the lack of choice in this category at the moment, I’m digging that the ibiza Rhapsody is a hard drive player (flash models are impending) with a 30GB capacity.”
“And I’m keen on the way the ibiza handles album art: there’s a fullscreen, faded out image behind the thumbnail on the main playback screen (see photo below).”
“There’s support for MP3, WMA (DRM 10 included), WAV, AAC audio and MPEG4, WMV, M4V, AVI, H.264, MPG video. ”

Engadget has the scoop on the new Slacker Player. Just after the ibiza-Rhapsody news, an odd day indeed as it seemed both these players look like they were becoming vaporware til today.
Here Engadget info
- It’ll be available in 15 (2GB), 25 (4GB), and 40 (8GB) station capacities. (Station capacity is how Slacker gauges storage. Each station carries with it a slew of tracks). Prices are $200, $250, and $300, respectively.
- 4-inch screen with touch strip and scroll wheel. (Sorry, not a touchscreen, though, nor is it intended for video playback.)
- The device uses WiFi to connect directly to content, and MTP over USB connection. You can do your thing without using a machine, but if you want to use USB you won’t have an easy time using it on non-Windows platforms.
- It supports MP3, WMA, and AAC playback. The music you sync from the stations is kept in “hidden” storage in DRMed AAC. No, you’re not at all allowed to try and grab at this content.
- 10 hours battery life with removable li-ion battery
- Premium Radio Service is available for $7.50 per month, enabling unlimited track skipping, ratings music and banning tracks or artists, station sharing, and ad-free station streams

Is it just us, or did this thing take a glancing blow from the ugly stick? Not a direct, brutal strike by any means, but it seems like there may have been a bit of an exchange before this sucker’s announcement. Anyway, yeah, Samsung’s i780 is all official now — which we now know has absolutely no relation to the BlackJack2 for AT&T — and while it may not be taking earning any points for sheer beauty, it makes up for the indiscretion with sheer braun. You get Windows Mobile 6 Professional (yes, Professional, not Standard), assisted GPS, a 2.6 inch 320 x 320 display, 256MB of ROM and 128MB of RAM, WiFi, and that crazy optical touchpad that lets you navigate via mouse pointer. Sadly, the triband GSM and single-band 3G are going to keep this one well off US shores, but then again, keep in mind that the i600 spawned the i607 BlackJack back in the day — so stay positive, folks.
