The iRiver P35 was introduced in the US during CES 2009, but now iRiver has decided to launch the device in Korea. The player features USB 2.0 OTG, a 4.3 inch LCD (WQVGA), and is compatible with most of big multimedia formats including Xvid, WMV9, MPEG2/4, and H.264.

You can get the iRiver P35 in three models including the P35 Basic with no WiFi/DMB and only 8GB of internal memory, the P35 DMB with a DMB TV Tuner, no WiFi and 16GB of internal memory, and the P35 WiFi that features both a DMB TV Tuner, WiFi and 16GB of internal memory.

Iriver has made a name for itself with its range of portable media players, and now they have themselves a few new releases in the Dicple D35 and D31. Both models have a, shall we say, unusual design…

They seem to have become thicker than Doctor Phil on a twinkie binge, with a more prominent screen bezel. They feature DMB support, FM radio recording, handwriting recognition, touchscreen display and PIM functions to keep you organized. Right now it looks like Iriver will be keeping the D35 and D31 in Korea only, where they like thick devices.

You may have noticed that e-book readers are starting to catch on. If this is news to you, you probably don’t own a Kindle. And since reading e-books is all the rage, we should see more manufacturers jump on board in due time.

iriver Japan (not iRiver from Korea) hopes to join in on the reindeer games by releasing their own e-book reader. Their offering looks more ike a rebadged version of the Netronix reader which was released last year. Apparently the iriver Japan device will be capable of handling PDF documents, have a simple joystick control interface, an SD memory card slot and audio file playback.

Today iRiver is showing off the WAVE-HOME, which is dubbed an “all-in-one solution”, the WAVE-HOME features a 7 inch screen, built-in speakers and comes with a handset that acts as a VOIP phone and a remote control. It also has a built-in 1.3 megapixel webcam.

They basically want the device to handle all of your needs. Some features include: VOIP, web surfing, video chat, SMS/MMS, taking photos, displaying photos, videos, playing music files, FM radio, widgets (weather, news, traffic, etc.) iRiver sees the WAVE-HOME as a “do everything” multimedia and communications center. They want it front and center, with you using it for something.

iRiver just rolled out the iRiver E50 MP3 player measuring only 7 mm thick, with a nice brushed metal texture in front. It supports most of popular audio formats and FM radio. Each purchase of the iRiver E50 comes with a pair of earbuds and it’s available in 2, 4 or 8GB storage sizes. The player also offers a 1.8 inch display, voice recorder, and 52 hours of battery life.

Look, we’re no stranger to the iRiver Mickey Mouse MP3 player. Kids and women seem to love it, despite the fact that it freaks us the hell out.

Well, iRiver has updated the Mickey on crack cute little player by changing its facial expressions to match the function you’re using. Say, adjusting the volume, skipping a track, shuffling through tracks etc. This just makes it all the creepier. No doubt it will hypnotize children and train them to form some sort of crap-gadget army of the living dead.

Taking some of us completely by surprise, Reigncom has released its Wave wifi phone into the wilds of the Korean market. It’s an iPod Touch type device. It’s basically a portable media player with some extra capabilities, like voice over IP (VOIP), supports music/video playback, photo/text viewer, electronic dictionary function and more. Not a ton of other details, but at least it’s been outted.

According to Reigncom’s President, iriver will be releasing a cell phone early next year. The new iriver phone will be available from Korean carrier KT. The iriver phone concept had been previously spotted by many at CES 2008, but at the time iriver claimed the phone was just a concept. Well, seems like it’s for real now. We don’t have full specs yet, but we know the phone features a large touchscreen, Wi-Fi, and embedded access to Bugs Music Service, as well as handwriting recognition and multiple dictionaries on board. Should be available on March 9th.

River has updated their already bizarre Mickey Mouse MP3 players with something new. This version has hypnotizing eyes and may need a good exorcism. Glowing LED demon eyes no doubt make it easier to take over the world. It also has 2GB of storage for your soul, even MP3 or WMA files. If your kid’s head turns all the way around and he/she can’t stop watching Disney movies, don’t complain to us.

This isn’t your typical run of the mill MP3 player. It’s got stereo speakers, FM radio, a microSD card slot, line-in, and a new D-Click system. Then there’s the large 2.4-inch TFT LCD screen. Did I mention, it weighs just two ounces? This sweet MP3 Player is available in two capacities, a 4GB version and 8GB, both with flash memory. Some color choices are Solid Black, White, Sky Blue, and Pink.

You get a bunch of audio and video formats, Rhapsody, Napster, and Yahoo subscription services, voice recording, text viewer, photo viewer, and more. The battery will give you 5 hours of video playback or 17 hours of music. You wouldn’t expect it to be reasonably priced, but it is, at just $109.99 for the 4GB model or $159.99 for the 8GB version. Nice! You are getting a lot for your money.

One iRiver itemed we regrettably missed covering from CES earlier this month is the hot looking Unit2. We weren’t sure about when it might be released but word from TWICE is the Unit2 will have a “late-year delivery,” with pricing between $800 and $1,000.

The iRiver Unit2 pulls together a bunch of features into one device, according to a recent iRiver press release. These functions include “Audio, Video, DVD player, DiVX player, CD player, FM Tuner, VoIP phone, VoIP Video Phone, SMS/MMS, Web Browsing, Web Mail.” It sports a seven-inch touch screen interface and has built-in stereo speakers to act as a desktop audio system.

There’s gold in them there ears! iRiver is set to sell what it is calling the “assassin’s mace”. This amounts to a Mickey Mouse MP3 with gold paint on it ala Goldfinger.(Or more recently Goldmember of Austin Powers fame) Mickey fans will want to hurry as it’s only available in limited editions.

The design houses a Philips PNX0103ET sound processor. The ears will control the volume and track menu and it has an internal memory of 2GB. It’s very cute in a “If Mickey were a pimp” kind of way, as well as being simple and it won’t cost you a fortune, at $123.
