iFP-195T Features 512MB of Memory for Up to 17 Hours* of Audio Storage
SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- iRiver, the emerging global leader in portable digital audio devices, today announced the unveiling of its iFP-195T, the most feature rich and largest capacity flash-based memory player on the market. As the latest addition to iRiver's successful line of compressed audio devices -- iFP-120, iFP-140, iFP-180T and iFP-190T -- the iFP-195T comes standard with 512MB of internal memory and offers consumers the ability to record straight from its FM tuner.
"The iFP-195T is an excellent music device for action sports, the gym or traveling," said Jonathan Sasse, marketing director at iRiver America. "The iFP-195T comes bundled with Sennheiser MX300 earphones, a sports armband and plays up to 20 hours on a single AA battery. And, users can store all types of files when it's used as a portable drive. These new features underscore iRiver's commitment to making innovative products that are at the forefront of consumers' design, performance and pricing expectations."
The iFP-195T plays MP3, WMA and ASF music files and holds up to 17 hours of music and audio files. The iFP-195T is loaded with features, including a built-in FM tuner and the exclusive voice record and FM tuner record functionality. The player is also compatible with the latest version of the MoodLogic Software that offers an intuitive solution for users to create mixes based on genre, mood and tempo rather than simply by artist and track names.
The iFP-190T announced at CES earlier this year received the "Best Buy" and number one ranking in the Flash-Media Player Category from PC World in the March 2003 issue. The iFP-195T builds on the feature set and functionality of the iFP-190T, while doubling internal memory capacity.
