Samsung Introing iPod Killer at CES – Report
Posted in: ipod, MP3 Digital Audio, samsung, Today's Chili
The MP3 player space has long been a single horse race. A number of companies have continued to produce players, but they’ve all been minor entries, at best. Samsung has been among those who have continued to offer up these devices, in spite of only capturing a small portion of the market–like others, it has focused on the more immediate threat: the iPhone (and now the iPad).
The company reportedly announced this week, that it will be making another major push in the music player space at CES, next week in Las Vegas. The device is set to become the latest addition to the Galaxy line, running Android 2.2 and featuring a 4-inch touchscreen, 1GHz processor, front and rear facing cameras for video conferencing, a MicroSD slot, and, naturally, access to the Android Market.
All in all, the thing looks an awful lot like the iPod touch, but perhaps the focus on Android is precisely what Samsung needs to win back a little market share.
