Bluetooth enabled iRiver s10?
As some of you will know, the latest mp3 offering from iRiver is the s10 - a down-sized version of the hugely popular iRiver clix minus the video playback functionality - and with good reason! The iRiver s10 is comparable to the size of the iPod shuffle - around the size of a 50 cent piece. The major differences between the shuffle and the s10 are that the latter has an LCD screen which allows for navigation through the brilliant and innoative D-click system, and it also comes with an inbuilt FM radio. It comes in two different flavours (1GB and 2GB), and both are capable of music playback for up to 8 hours. It's pricey though, with a 1GB and 2GB model setting you back 150 and 200 buckeroos respectively.
Sounds good eh? But wait, there's MORE! Lately there's been rumour of an updated version of the s10, which comes with a USB bracelet and bluetooth functionality. The USB bracelet allows the s10 to be worn somewhat like a watch (yes, the iRiver s10 has a clock function) and can connect wirelessly to a pair of headphones via bluetooth. So far it's only a prototype circulating the Korean iRiver community, but boy I can't wait to get my hands on one of these babies! Fingers crossed these will start production soon and be available for purchase by the time I visit Japan next year!
