Lorsch, 21.08.2007 – TrekStor, leading manufacturer of high-quality MP3 players, external hard disks and USB sticks, will present yet another new movie/MP3 player, the TrekStor blaxx, in Hall 16 of this year's IFA 2007 (to be held in Berlin from August 31st until September 5th). This extremely flat, mini-player with black finish has a movie player for replay of videos, a sharp-image TFT display with 260,000 colour capability, an integrated stereo FM radio as well as a dictation device, folder navigation and an ID3-tag display. The blaxx is also equipped with a Line-in connection for recording from external audio sources. TrekStor blaxx models are available with 2 or 4 gigabyte memory storage capacities. This provides sufficient storage for up to 80 albums of music favourites. Enough for users to enjoy 15 hours without a pause.

"Our blaxx is truly a new movie player on the market", proudly states Daniel Szmigiel, Executive Director of TrekStor GmbH & Co. KG, in Lorsch, Germany. "Our goal is to take a leading role in the multimedia field. This stylish blaxx precisely reflects the desires of the young, trend-conscious target group we are aiming for. Those who wish to do a lot more with their MP3 players than just listen to music. This puts us on just the right path in the digital world."

Features for absolute multimedia pleasure
The TrekStor blaxx has a flat touchpad for simple, quick operation via illuminated sensors. In addition to conventional MP3, WMA or WAV files, this new movie player supports the replay of OGG and SMV files as well as WMA-DRM-9 (Digital Rights Management) format for listening to songs purchased in Internet.

As a movie player it can replay videos in SMV format. This super-thin MP3 player has dimensions of 34 mm x 81 mm x 8 mm (W x H x D) and weighs just 26 grams, including its rechargeable battery, so it can be taken along everywhere without difficulty. This chic mini-player also has a shuffle function that allows titles to be selected and played at random. When this multimedia unit is switched on again, a resume function permits it to take up replay operation at precisely the point where it was interrupted. The TrekStor blaxx even permits the recording of WAV files directly from the integrated radio. Slideshows can be presented from pre-stored images in either JPEG or BMP format. The integrated Lithium-polymer battery can be recharged over a USB interface connection.

The blaxx costs between 119.99 EUR (2 GB) and 149.99 EUR (4 GB). Included in the package are: Sennheiser headphones, USB 2.0 cable, Line-In cable, neck strap, Magix MP3 Maker SE, software drivers CD and operating instructions.
