DVD ZABADY - Image 1For those of us who want to enjoy some quality tunes or watch a quality DVD while in the comfort of our own bathtubs, Twinbird has just the solution - and it's all without the risk of getting yourself electrocuted or having a high-end piece of digital entertainment get water damage.

It's the DVD ZABADY, built to withstand the worst of splashes while delivering the best possible media playback around. The DVD ZABADY is a petite yet stout gadget, measuring at a healthy 290x180x62mm and weighs at around 1.3 kilograms.

Two speakers at the front deliver quite the audio punch, while a bright LCD screen gets you a clear picture even while you're busy in the tub. Versatile, the DVD ZABADY can play movies from either DVDs or SD cards, and music in either MP3 or MP4 format. The waterproof casing opens up at the back for easy access to the media slots, and closes back on itself nice and tight to prevent any water from getting in.

And if you're worried about having direct contact with the DVD ZABADY's face buttons with your fingers wet, this little gadget comes with its own waterproof remote control, designed so that you can easily adjust your viewing or listening experience without the risk of shocking yourself. Nice.

Epoq's MP4 - Image 1Don't mistake this gadget for a matchbook, or a lighter. This steely, shiny, little device is actually an MP4 player. Created by Epoq, it boasts of a 2.4" QVGA LCD, built in speaker, FM radio (with 40 presets), sound voice recorder, image viewer, e-book reader, and support for the following formats: mp1, mp2, mp3, wma, avi, jpg, bmp and txt.

Sure promises to do a lot, eh? However, we're guessing that for you to be able to do all that, you'd have to do them one by one as the memory is painfully small for today's standards. At one to two GB onboard, with an additional MiniSD card slot, Gizmodo was pretty apt when it described Epoq's MP4 player as having the memory of a gold fish.

But hey, we're sure there will always be a workaround for that. Like in the joke "How do you get an elephant and a lion to fit in a fridge?" the answer is as simple. Take out the elephant and put in the lion.

Er... yeah. So that joke's free. But Epoq's MP4 isn't. The 1GB model is tagged at US$ 99.95, while the 2GB unit is for US$ 139.95.

Commodore Gravel In Pocket"We want to go forward and make as big a difference to the media environment of the future as Commodore did in the 1970s and 1980s," so says Ben van Wijhe, President and CEO of Commodore International Corporation. A big difference indeed they will get as they announce a new Portable Multimedia Player (PMP) that has probably the, well, weirdest name.

Commodore Gravel In Pocket is very handy you can easily slip it in your purse or pocket. We wonder what's with the tag but maybe that's how it would feel: a gravel inside your pocket. This PMP can support all major file formats (MP4, MPEG, DivX, Xvid, WMV, MP3, WMA, WAV, JPG, BMP and GIF) and allows you to store them in its 1GB or 2GB internal memory, not including an SD card slot for removable memory.

The 2.8'' TFT screen is suitable for full motion (24fps) video playback. This music and movie player is very well suited for people on the go as it is readily offers direct WiFi access. Wijhe and Commodore is expected to give out more information about this Gravel In their Pockets come September 1 to 6 at the the International Consumer Electronics Trade Fair (IFA) in Berlin. The Commodore company is mostly distinguished for its 1982 desktop computer Commodore64 and The Amiga Systems.
