First of all i would like to thank Engadget for giving us a rather good looking mock-up of the new upcoming eMac. Although not much information is available for the new Mac but what seems to be certain will be the switch to a LCD monitor and hopefully will be powered be a Intel dual core processor as well.

Meizu just announced a new PMP into the market that has some striking features that resemble several of apply designs. However the beauty does pack a decent amount of features including, up to 4GB of memory, a 2.4″ screen, a microphone plug for voice recording, FM support of some kind, USB support and MP3/WAV/OGG/WMA for audio, and Xvid for video. Its battery life isn’t to bad either allowing for 20 hours of battery life for audio and 6 for video.
Apple really needs to pump out their IPod Video soon if they ever want to be a competitive force in the PMP world
