From France we have this. Jeff Thomson to Unveil New Portable Digital Music Player, WSJ Says Paris, May 3 (Bloomberg) -- Thomson Consumer Electronics Inc., the U.S. unit of France's Thomson Multimedia, is expected to introduce a new portable digital music player today which plays and records so-called MP3 audio transferred from a personal computer, the Wall Street Journal Interactive edition reported. It plans to start selling the product, named the RCA Lyra, this fall for $200. The device is compatible with Microsoft Corp.'s MS Audio compression technology and it will store the audio on removable flash memory cards developed by SanDisk Corp. and hard drives developed by International Business Machines Corp., the paper said. Last December, France sold about a third of Thomson Multimedia to four companies, including Microsoft Corp., Hughes Electronics' DirecTV unit, Japan's NEC Corp. and France's Alcatel SA.
