Kenwood HD20GA7 20GB MP3 Player Press Release

kenwood-dh20ga7.jpg Kenwood just announced their player for release in Japan at the end of this month. It has a nice looking design and a killer 2.2” QVGA color screen. It sports a 24 hour battery life and measures 104×61×17mm. It already supports 7 different languages so we will likely see it soon here in the US. Other gadget sites are reporting that there is no FM support and no picture support. However, the press release does state that there is support for album cover art. But, then again, its just a press release, and perhaps a poorly translated press release.

I have always been a fan of their head units. It has a nice disign and an already establish brand name. If they can get the right distribution it may do well.

Wow I really like the look of this. smooth and the buttons look easy to use for a left hander like me. There does look to be a lot of screen space. Im still kind of weary of kenwood products.

Their head units are great, i never had a problem with them. That would be a nice integration if they were to adapt this player to thier head units.

I sent Kenwood email asking about the availability of the HD20GA7 in the US and they basically told me not this year.
Ah well. It's a nice looking unit though.

    The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.

    The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.

    The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

    The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.

    The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
