Samsung Electronics will introduce the YM-PD1 Portable Multimedia Player with DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) functionality tonight at the annual Samsung Global Road Show in New York. The multi-codec PMP allows users to watch movies, enjoy DMB TV content, and listen to music on the go. (Note: DMB feature not yet available in U.S.)
Samsung's YM-PD1 supports a 30GB HDD for multimedia file playback, including movie and music files. The terrestrial DMB TV function allows easy television viewing on a 4" wide TFT-LCD screen. The clear and detailed image is enhanced by Samsung's proprietary sound technology, the Digital Natural Sound engine (DNSe(TM)), for ultimate audio-visual quality.
The YM-PD1 will enhance the urban lifestyle of active businesspeople and students who enjoy portable multimedia entertainment. The device supports indoor entertainment as well as outdoor, with a TV-out option to merge DMB TV and multimedia file payback with home networking.
"Samsung is committed to developing stylish, high capacity, all-in-one personal entertainment devices which meet the changing needs of consumers' modern lifestyles," said Taiho Ahn, Senior Vice President of Samsung's digital media division.
