The
Teclast C290 has recently hit the mainstream Chinese electronics market. This latest player from Teclast plays music in MP3/WMA/APE/FLAC, has the screen bumped up to 2.8" inches, sports dual chips once again (Telechips TCC8200 and Wolfson WM8750BG) and has got a very cool brushed aluminum back finish.
A neat feature of this 7.9mm slim player is something called
G-Sensor. It allows you to use the forward/back functions by just shaking the player.
There are improvements on the video front as well, the C290 now plays your favorite Flash (FLV) videos downloaded from the internet directly.
Currently, only the 2GB is out for a very reasonable 499 CNY (approx. $65 USD) in China.
