Toshiba MP3 player - Bit rate 320kbps
Lasts but, but least I found a new MP3 player concept. This neat little white thing plays up to 17 hours of MP3 music (128kb/s) directly from a Secure Digital card. Besides using a flash card, this concept is also able to play 69 hours of music from a built-inn 4GB 0.85-inch Hard Disk. For transmission Toshiba considers integrating a BlueTooth or USB interface.

Toshiba digital concepts : At the IFA 2005 show, Toshiba is showing several prototypes or studies of new ideas and solutions. OLED is something that seems to be pushed into the background presently, but companies like Toshiba are still investing time and money into this new display technology. One of the concepts is an OLED/SD Memory Card viewer. This concept model is showcased at the Toshiba booth. The OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display is 3.5-inch large and offers a resolution of 320x240 pixels. It plays MPEG4 movies directly from Secure Digital (SD) card (QVGA 30 frames per second) and offers six hours playback. It seems that playing movies and music from flash cards will be the next step for portable entertainment.
