RaveMP 2300 Clik! Drive Model Takes MP3 To New Levels Of Performance For Emerging New Market Segments
The RaveMP 2300, due out this summer, utilizes Iomega Corporation's Clik!(TM) drive technology as the removable storage media for the download and playback of music and other data from their PC or the Internet. With inexpensive 40MB Clik! disks, available in for an estimated street price of $9.99 (U.S.) each, when purchased in a 10-pack, customers can now create virtually unlimited collections of music, computer files and other data on 40MB Clik! disks.
Capable of supporting both the MP3 and MS Audio (WMA) formats, the RaveMP 2300 connects to the computer through a USB interface for faster communications between the PC and the unit. The unit is also user upgradeable, allowing it to support new audio formats as well as new regulatory compliance standards and operating software.
Automatically Synchs With Microsoft Outlook
An example of the advanced nature and capabilities of this product is the auto synch feature, which allows users to synchronize information between Microsoft Outlook and the unit. Additional advanced features in the device include voice recording capability, world date and time, and the ability to store computer files and other data. Users can store up to 2 1/2 hours of voice recordings on a single Clik! disk, or up to 40MB of MS Outlook names and numbers or other computer files, and simply drag and drop information from their PCs onto the player and take it anywhere. A line-in jack also provides the ability to connect the unit to an external audio device.
The unit runs on lithium ion batteries, and a large backlit display makes for easy viewing in low light conditions. Easy-to-use intuitive software and a AC/DC charger is also included. The RaveMP 2300 will initially retail for about $299. ``The RaveMP 2300 Clik! disk product addresses an entire new group of consumers interested in reasonable memory cost and PDA functionality, as well as the features that have created a national phenomenon with portable MP3 music,' added Palaia.
