Hot from the dripping faucets at the FCC, comes this leaked info about a new WiFi-capable Toshiba Gigabeat. You might be asking yourself, isn't a WiFi Gigabeat essentially the same thing as the Zune? Pretty much yes, but this new Gigabeat will actually be a flash player. There aren't many details at all available yet but here's what we know:

• Model name: Toshiba Gigabeat MET401 (M-Series?)
• Capacity: 4GB Flash Memory
• 2.4" Display
• Built-in WiFi
• Running Windows Embedded
• Dimensions: 54mm x 85.6 x 9.9mm (70g)

Looking at those dimensions, this upcoming player should be slightly larger than the Meizu M6 (48.2mm x 79mm x 10mm). As you can see, this new player won't be using Microsoft's now dead Portable Media Center OS, but as the back of the player indicates, it will instead be powered by their newest CE system called Windows Embedded. Could this really be for a flash Zune? It's possible, but from what I've read, Microsoft won't be relying on Toshiba for that new player. We'll be sure to fill you in when we find out more!
