Samsung YP-CP3 PMP

Initial details as well as first imagery of Samsung’s up and coming CP3 (YP-CP3) portable media player appear to have been leaked allowing us a glimpse of the CP3 PMP’s form as well as enabling us to gain a general grasp as to what the CP3 has to offer in terms of capabilities. We can't say for sure that Samsung's YP-CP3 is just a P3 with a pinch more "C," but there are definitely similarities to be seen. At any rate, the CP3 has just surfaced overseas, the Samsung YP-CP3 PMP purportedly comes with a 3″ 16:9 aspect ratio 400 x 240 resolution touchscreen display, boasts an integrated FM tuner, built-in microSD card slot and, in terms of supported file formats, takes in MP3, WMA, OGG, WAV, FLAC, RM, MPEG4, WMV, SVI, RMVB and TXT.

The Samsung YP-CP3 joystick should also be easier to use than the all too sensitive diamond touch interface in the YP-Q1 and YP-Q2, and there are even rumours of a camera onboard but we’re not optimistic about that one.

We’re yet to see any imagery of the front of the YP-CP3 so are unable to confirm the existence of an integrated camera though camera functionality is being speculated upon.

According to the Russian site P2Club the Samsung YP-CP3 Touchscreen PMP could be released this summer with the site offering up June as a possible point of release though, obviously, we should stress that all the above is strictly unofficial and unconfirmed.

P2Club has it that the Samsung YP-CP3 will surface in June, and given that one of the main selling points of the Samsung PMP range is the price point.

While many of us are still waiting for the P3 to arrive on our shores, Samsung is wasting no time in releasing another touchscreen PMP. The YP-CP3 was recently revealed by P2club.net, a Russian Samsung fansite.

Its really a stylish device... Can this challenge the iPod touch?
