Teclast T29 Reviewed
Oct 15, 2006 MP3 Players, Others Players
You might not familiar with Teclast since it is maily appear in China mainland. The company is the first MP3 manufacturer that introduces dual core in MP3 players. Err0r has sent me his exclusive review on his Teclast T29 on the new Teclast fansite – Teclasters. The T29 is third generation of Teclast’s dual core MP3 player that powered by Korean’s Telechips TCC770 and UK’s Wolfson WM8750S
The Teclast T29 is a small, great looking and cheap player. It has all the regular functions required of modern digital audio players as well as some additional ones. A generous accessory pack is bundled with the player. A great piece of additional eye-candy is that the background “pulsates”, fades and un-fades.
It has some points that annoy me somewhat. First off, it displays a Unicode font (Courier?) – the type of English text you see when browsing Asian websites. Secondly, the slightly loose top button. Thirdly, the fact that the strap only can be attached to the pouch and not the player itself. Finally, the navigation can take some time to be understood and mastered.
The Teclast T29 is a great player. Good functions, good bundle of accessories, good sound and a nice exterior. Its small size makes it very portable and its cheap price makes it very affordable. Teclast are prompt with firmware updates. Just two days ago a new firmware was released for the T29 fixing some problems and improving navigation, making it more logical. If this continues, in some time some of my annoyances towards this player could be extinguished.

Oct 12, 2006 MP3 Players, Others Players, PMP
It seems that Rockchip is going to give Actions a big slam by squeezing to the crowded market perfectly. There are more and more low-end MP3 player (or Pre-PMP) built on Rockchip solution to provide better performance and extensibility.
RAmos is one of the pioneers by offering the first Rockchip-based MP3 player, RM100. The company is going to release new RM400 MP3 player, which powered by the new Rockchip RK2608 solution. The new Rm400 is capable to playback AVI video at 24fps on a 2.2″ QVGA display. We’ll see a review very soon once the product actually released. ![]()

Oct 11, 2006 MP3 Players, Others Players, Software, Tips & Tricks
If you are one of the Siren or ILO owner, you might be driven crazy about their crappy firmware. One of my reader has got it fixed with upgrading its firmware. He had left a solution on my old post (Siren MP3 Player: Q&A)
My Siren 512MB Mp3 player was caught in a continuous loop on boot up. I
contacted the support department and they sent me a link to the firmware
installer. After running the software my Mp3 player is functional once
again.
Here is the instruction for the fix:

Is it Meizu Miniplayer2?
Oct 10, 2006 MP3 Players, Others Players, PMP

Is this one the upcoming Meizu M8 a.k.a miniplayer2? First time I saw it, I thought it was real. But it wasn’t. It just some mock-ups by a Meizu’s fan. I would say the fellow design it is heavily amazed by Korean digital products. The photoshoped miniplayer2 comes with a slider body that similar to iRiver’s products and the navigation button layout is basically ripped from LG’s Chocolate mobile phones. Well, let see if Meizu takes his idea ![]()
