Built-in MIC
Built-in FM radio with 20 channel presets
Multiple repeat mode
Supports external Mini SD Card (not included)
Built-in speaker
Built-in 1000 mAh Li-ion battery
Video playing: 4 hours
Audio playing: 15 hours (in the LCD closed mode)
USB2.0 high transmission
Dimension: 3.75" x 2.20" x 0.55"

Did a google search to find the makers web page, but nothing. I would have to see all the specs including the operating system before judging but from the way it looks, might cut into the ipod touch sales. Anyone find the makers web page, please post it.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt, but a new member linking to an ebay auction is always suspicious, so I've removed the link.

I doubt that this product will make it out of Asia except on places like ebay.

not really a new member, I post mostly on macnn/news topics, didn't post on the fora. I thought this one was worth the adventure though.

BTW: The unit seems to ship from florida, not asia.

It doesn't really matter where it ships from. I doubt that this company will officially be selling these in the US. By the way, my hunch is that this was actually designed as an iPhone knockoff.

That is funny. My whole view on Apple products is that I know I am purchasing a reliable simplistic computer or device with a fantastic human to machine interface which totally defeats the purpose of these knock offs.
