Acer glimpses Personal Media Player MP-500

Although the device has yet to be officially announced, Acer recently offered a sneak peek of its Personal Media Player MP-500 at its autumn event in Athens, Greece. Likely to be announced before Christmas, the device will include support for a number of common audio and video formats, although whether Digital Rights Management is supported remains unknown.
Featuring a 3.5-inch TFT screen of unknown resolution, the MP-500 will be available in sizes of either 20 or 40 GB, also incorporating an SD/MMC slot for transferring data directly to the internal drive of the unit. This feature, in combination with photo viewing software, will let casual photographers offload and view pictures whilst on the go.
