Hard disk MP3 players used to be the only option for carrying around more than a few albums worth of music in your pocket. But with 4GB and 8GB flash players now common, they've had to up the ante.
Video is the name of the game with the high-capacity devices these days. Capacities range from the modest (30GB) to the extremely generous (160GB), so there's lots of space available for everything from your favourite TV programmes to film and home movies - and you aren't just restricted to video. These players will also play music files, display photos, and some can even record TV and stream media over Wi-Fi.
Korean manufacturer iubi has taken this onboard with its Blue portable media player (PMP). It certainly looks the part, with a large 4.3in screen and glossy black plastic chassis. It's solidly built format support for video is good - with native playback for standard-definition DivX and XviD file types - and Bluetooth support lets you connect wireless headphones and speakers.
