An Alba or the Shuffle?
08.10.07 - 09:25am
Alba has just launched two new MP3 players sporting 2GB and 4GB. They retain only their serial like numbers for their names which are MP32GD11SIL and MP34GD11BLK. (boy those names will see them flying off the shelves - do these guys at least name their dogs?)
They don’t look too bad, typical square MP3 players with blue backlit LCD displays. The players come in black or silver and also come with headphones.
They weigh 34 grams and measure 5cmx6cmx2cm. Small enough to fit in your pocket where they will have to go since they don’t have the cool handy clip the Shuffle does.
The players play for around 10 hours on one AAA battery and have a SD/MMC memory card slot to swap playlists and upgrade memory. They support MP3 and WMA files.
The memory cards are definitely a plus to the MP3 players and price isn’t bad either retailing for about $46 for the 2GB and $80 for the 4GB.
The players definitely have more memory for a cheaper price than the Shuffle but without even a name? Really? Still you could take one of these players mud bogging, camping, skydiving or just about anywhere too risky to take your precious Shuffle. After all if you lose something without a name did it ever really exist in the first place?
