Coby's MP-C83 Shuffle Killer to Compete with Sandisk's Sansa Xpress

 
I already can’t wait for Sandisk’s Sansa Xpress to come out because it looks like it will make an awesome Shuffle alternative. It seems like Coby has some very similar plans for flash player domination. Their MP-C896 looks strikingly similar to the Sansa Xpress. It has a neat LCD display, a built-in USB connector, an FM radio and recorder, an integrated mic for voice recording, and it supports WMA files. Unlike the Sansa Xpress though, it is available in several capacities including a very desirable 2GB version. No word on pricing or availability yet, but Coby is known for having affordable prices. They also have another similarly striking pendant MP3 player coming out, the MP-C83 with built-in flash memory and room for expansion via SD cards.
