Kenwood M1GA3 1GB MP3 Players
Jun 2, 2005 MP3 Players, Others Players
Kenwood introduces M1GA3 MP3 Player, 1GB versions of their MP3 player line that they introduced in Japan earlier this year.
The Kenwood players are believed that were OEMed from Creative (DMP FX120). Kenwood just has a really big brand and is able to string a high audio quality story around this rather average mp3 player in Japan. Another theory would be that they further developed the Creative DMP FX120 to make it better.
The new Kenwood M1GA3 comes in white, blue and light blue. The features include:
- MP3 and WMA file support
- USB 2.0
- 32 hours battery life
- FM-Tuner
