These things are all there rage in the far east at the mo, especially
Korea... one of the best is the RapSody from Savit:

Only one UK distributor as far as I know...

Also good are the MediaGate players

Again, only one place in UK I have found them

www.akihabaranews.com is generally good for info on stuff coming out
in the Far East...

Personally after looking in to all these I ended up with a KiSS DP1500
