iRiver Wave Phone – UK Release?

by Jay Garrett on November 11, 2008

iRiver is a name that you’d generally associate with media players but they have been flashing their phone concept at various shows.

I’m guessing that all the feedback was positive as it is a dream no more! 

Wave hello to the iRiver Wave!

This Wave is a bit of a looker as well.  Check out that large touchscreen and that lovely, metallic case.  

It’s from iRiver so media-playing is pretty much a given, with video streaming on that large screen that flips from horizontal to vertical viewing……I’m sure something else does this….. 

Also squeezed in are an FM radio, handwriting recognition and a dictionary – Naturally!

Wi-Fi and card expansion is all very groovy but I would have expected digital TV as well – Am I being unreasonable?

The iRiver Wave is set for launch in Korea in March 2009.

If you fancy one it might be worth noting that iRiver products have a habit of getting into the UK ;)

Spinn Touch Screen – iRiver PMP Available

by Jay Garrett on July 29, 2008

Yup, the Spinn by iRiver actually has a haptic feedback touchscreen!

The official spec on iriver’s Korean site also says battery life will last 24-hours (not 27) and I can’t see evidence of the promised SD slot. It’s not even in the specs!

The clean (some say boring) lines of the 10.7-mm thick metal and plastic case that sports a 3.3-inch, 480 x 272 pixel AMOLED display, T-DMB TV, Bluetooth, and the new analog SPINN Wheel.

Its currently on pre-order for South Korea with the 4GB model fetching 259,000KRW (about $259) or 8GB for 299,000KRW (about $299).

It’s due for release in the UK next month – well, in a few days/weeks.

What is it with iPod?
Everywhere I look there are accessories for them, adverts for home hi-fis stating proudly ’includes iPod dock’.  Where are the stereos that include ‘iRiver’ station or ‘Zen Dock’?
Are iPods really that good?  Or have we been all wowed by the advertising campaigns and the fact that Apple managed to make it a [...]
