MobiBlu DAH-1500 comes in uber-cool box
comment: 11 | Friday, April 22 (2005) 06:31AM | Posted by Robert Sinke
I think we've said about enough about MobiBlu's DAH-1500 cube-like player... but the pictures keep flowing in, and they're still cool.

It comes in a box that reminds us a whole lot of the iPod (mini)'s - cube-shaped, with some fine artworks on each side of it.

Even has its own little protective "case". All very cute in an acceptable way.

More pictures over at POPCO. They call it a "preview", so I guess they'll review it later on.

Update: the DAH-1500 finally got its own product page, over at MobiBlu's website. CLICK.

This player keeps amazing me, on every picture it seems to get smaller and smaller. Ik believe this are optical illusions. If I would buy this player it would lose it in no-time.

Check the comparison picture of the DAH-1500 and the M&M's. (mmm, DAH, sounds a little like the russian commanders in red alert)

I'm so tempted to one of these, I don't need it, I just want one.
Any idea about ogg support and battery life?

OMG, that has got to be some kind of record for most wasteful packaging ever. I think you could fit 100 of those it that box.

100 of these cubes or 1 set of earphones, USB cable, manual and whatever comes with it. Yup, can't shrink those.

Cant think of how they managed to fit an amp, controls, screen etc... all in there...

I cant imagine it has a very powerful amp... If it can go to reasonable levels of loudness (without sounding like a tin-can) I WANT IT!!!

Lol, these things have a such a huge i-want-it-factor, even though I dont really need it...

who cares?

Shouldn't the Twitter article be updated? They removed the censorship and made it slightly less laggy, afaik.

@Dom: well, record label singular as both Cowell's label and Epic (the one RAtM are signed to) are subsidiaries of Sony.

But who cares?
Money's not the issue, it's just spanking the X-Factor in the chart that matters.

lol Step the real winners though...are the record labels

@bc: Actually stock Android is terrible w/codec support. Besides, 250gb for me is worth paying $20USD for a plug-in.

Rage FTW!

Well I thought Android would give it more video support.

I wonder what music player this has to have native ogg support. [Linky]

TheDarkSide
@bc: there's actually 2 reasons. First, the cost (Android Archos 5 is overpriced). Second, I have an Android phone and that's all the Android I need.

Besides, I'm going to use it for 99% video, so why get features I don't need at all.

bloodycape
@TDS is there a reason you didn't order the Android version?
