Klegg Mini - tiny, not new
Hey, nothing wrong with nice little - more like "super-tiny" - multi-functional DAP jewelry. MobiBlu's DAH-1500i (cube) proved to be quite a successful formula, iRiver's N10/11 have been going strong for a while as well and others have chosen the path of slimming down regular concepts (iPod nano, anyone?).

So here we have the Klegg Mini. It's tiny indeed, at 48 x 38 x 17mm. In comparison, the DAH-1500(i) measures just 24 x 24 x 24mm. Well, ok - Klegg only claimed their unit to be "the world's smallest MP3 player with a color display" but is that really a good thing?

Let's see... why do we actually use color screens? Because they look pretty, true - but also because it's functional every so often. I remember how lame it was to stare at the Archos Gmini-220's monochrome screen while browsing pictures. Watching movies on a v1 iPod didn't make too much sense either (yes, it's possible). A reasonably-sized color screen comes in handy for the occassional picture slideshow, a game of Tetris or maybe even a quick episode of South park.

The Klegg Mini's display is only 1-inch in diameter, though. It's also limited in terms of the number of colors it can display - "only" 4k, at a resolution of 128 x 128 pixels (not that bad). All in all, not the type of thing you'd prefer to view pictures on - try to find yourself on that landscape-type class-of-1997 picture, for instance. Nothing more than a gimmick, all in all. Which is fine by us, of course.

There's also this other noteworthy fact, though - this DAP isn't "new" at all. Some other, relatively wellknown North-American company seemed willing to rebrand the thing at first, but the process got halted for no apperent reason. It has been around on Asian business-to-business sites for ages (read: months) now, which sees itself reflected in "skimpy" memory capacities of 128MB, 256MB and 512MB. Might be just about enough for a stroll through the park, though. Or a few strolls. Or half a marathon.

Let's also not forget the excellent battery life (26 hours per charge, apparently) and the presence of a voice recorder. This device's available in pink, white and blue and comes with a USB2.0 connector (through which the internal battery can be recharged as well).

Prices start at 79.95 USD (128MB) and go up to $ 159.95 (512MB). The company's located in Las Vegas so we might bump into them at CES. They're supposedly working on a 5GB unit as well, which we suspect to look a little bit like this. You connect the dots.
