UK digital music device specialist Advanced MP3 Players has updated its tiny Pebble player, boosting the gadget's storage capacity to 2GB, adding support for DRM-protected WMA-encoded tracks and changing the name to Datasafe Oomi.
The Oomi boasts a 64 x 48 blue-on-black OLED screen and a 12-hour playback duration on a single charge of its built-in battery. It's got a microphone and a recordable FM tuner too.
Oh, and the 512MB and 1GB versions are £10 cheaper than the old Pebble of the same capacity. The three sizes of Oomi cost £69, £89 and £109, respectively, and they're available now from the Advanced MP3 Players website (http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk/shop/?www.reghardware.co.uk). ®
