CES 2010: New Players from Philips
comment: 2 | Thursday, January 14 (2010) 01:39PM | Posted by Michael
It looks like Philips has taken CES more seriously than other DAP manufacturers. Not only did they announce a partnership with SongBird, they also had (at least) four new players at their booth. Here's a quick run-down of what they had at their booth

Philips Muse



The Muse is the nicest from the bunch, featuring a 3.2" touchscreen,16GB's of storage, plus SD-card expansion, and HDMI output. It'll be released in April for $149.99.


Philips Cam



Philips has taken notes from Apple and have incorporated a camera on the back of one of their players. Unlike the Nano however, the "Cam" is capable of taking still pictures in addition to recording video. An 8GB model will be released in April for $99.99

Philips Ariaz



The Ariaz looks like a smaller version of the Muse, but with a full set of tactile controls. It has a 2.4" display, has an 8GB capacity plus SD expansion, and also does HDMI output. It'll retail for $79.99 this Spring.

Philips Raga



The Raga is your typical basic-range player. It has an aluminum build, and has a 4GB capacity. It'll be released in March for $44.99.

That's about all the info we have so far, but these new players are looking good. We'll update you with specs and other information when we get it.
