Premium player TrekStor vibez now available
Glitzy, disk-based MP3 player unveiled by TrekStor at IFA now available at retailers.
Lorsch, 16.11.2006 – TrekStor, the leading manufacturer of high quality MP3 players, external hard disks and USB sticks today announces the release of the latest highlight in its MP3 player range – the TrekStor vibez. The premium MP3 player – first presented at the IFA consumer electronics trade fair in Berlin – compels particularly with its eye catching curved forms and replaceable lithium ion battery allowing 20 hours’ musical ecstasy. The new player can also be upgraded optionally with an FM tuner card for additional radio entertainment. The new player is available with 8 and 12 gigabytes (GB) of storage capacity, enough space to save up to 3,000 songs. A 15 GB version and further accessories are planned for the second quarter of 2007.
All inclusive
Measuring 105 x 50 x 18 mm, the TrekStor vibez – comprising a wieldy, oval, soft touch casing and rounded, stainless steel back plate – sits elegantly and sexily in the hand. Besides MP3, WMA, WAV, OGG and FLAC, the gadget also supports WMA-DRM (Digital Rights Management) 9 and 10 formats. In DJ mode, the TrekStor vibez automatically generates play lists sorted to reflect the listener’s mood. While an integrated microphone enables it to be used as a dictation machine, a line in jack also allows music to be uploaded from other audio devices. In addition to this, the Cover Art function can be used to display the CD cover of the played songs on a 176 x 132 pixel, full color TFT display. A vibez design cleaning cloth and two vibez logo stickers are also included in the deliverables.
Matching accessories make the TrekStor vibez even more compelling: wired remote control, a docking station with battery charger and infra-red remote control, as well as three different neoprene bags. Replacement rechargeable batteries are naturally also available from the manufacturer.
