Vorbis - Sep 2003 - Another portable player? (The iRiver iHP 120)

Hi all,

My japanese is not so good ;-) But it appears that iRiver have released the
iHP-120, and it includes OGG playback support.

http://www.iriverjapan.com/product.php?product=iHP-120

If you scroll down to "Multi-CODEC" you will see that they use the
words
"Ogg Vorbis", not once but twice!

I haven't seen it float past here yet, so I just thought that I would bring
it to the attention of "the masses". Does this meant that Ogg Vorbis
really
is getting critical support levels?

Cheers,
Paul

Hello,

Well, it certainly looks like it supports Ogg Vorbis. Here is a
Babel Fish translation:

Looks kind of like an iPod-killer wannabe, but with Ogg support, just
what I've been waiting for. :) Thanks for pointing it out, Paul.
