Philips SA4000, aka the "Why-Bother" DAP

The SA4000 - it's an SA1200 + SA1300 + 7-color backlight. Welcome to, say, 2004, Philips. Reminds me a lot of Cowon's iAudio 4. A whopping 512MB of memory too; you're being too generous. An easily-replaceable battery is fine by me, but if it poops out after 10 hours or so... err, yeah - pass.

Seems to be no real point behind this thing, since the company is already offering various (affordable) entry-level DAPs as it is. Just take that SA9200 and up it to 4, 6 or even 8GB; then we'll continue our conversation.

  • Built-in memory capacity : 512 MB (NAND Flash)
