It also supports HDTV with the help of HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection).

This will definitely help the users who use Adobe Photoshop in RGB settings. Though the price is not revealed yet, it is expected around $1600.

Samsung YP-K3 Hands on

February 21st, 2007

Samsung YP-K3 (2GB)

Around a week back we did some pot shots at the Samsung’s K3, now its the time for some full blow stuff on this killer green. The K3 got a pretty warm response from Cnet Asia. According to them the player is pretty sweet with a sleek design. The new Media Studio software is one hell of a awesome media management software which blends up the best parts of both iTunes and Sony’s SonicStage and has nearly 27hours of music time, while looping 240MB worth of MP3 tracks and thats more then any we have ever seen. Well thats enough for the praise lets get dirty, it has a bad problem”smudgy surface” this attracts fingerprints besides this data transfer can only be done via its proprietary cable (what if you mess up the cable). But if you can handle this little bugs, this is one smoking piece of hardware.
