TheiAudio A2 video playermodels for a few snapshots , and Apple and Creative are at it again in“Patent war . ”
Diehards in DAPland have been waiting for age for the “ sequel ” to Philips slick but buggy HDD100 series , and it ’s finallyhere . The eyeglasses are impressive too , including 15 + hours of battery aliveness , semblance filmdom with photo viewing / record album artistic production , and FM radio / spokesperson recording features . control on the face appear to be touch sensitive , like every other non - Apple DAP seems to be doing these Day .
