There’s more news out of the Philips camp than just the recently announced Android-driven GoGear Connect. Yup, Philips have been busy giving the formidable GoGear Muse a makeover of sorts.

Similar to the GoGear Connect, the Muse sports an aluminium enclosure around a 3.2-inch display complimenting a 720p HDMI ouput. File support is somewhat of a mystery; however, expect support for Audible, FLAC, APE, MP3, and WMA. The down-side is that the device looks to be audio-only putting it in the same league as the iAudio 9.

Available in either 8GB, 16GB or 32GB capacities, the Muse includes a microSD slot for further storage expansion. Additional features include a Songbird player, iPlayer, FM tuner, and microphone.

Prices are sketchy at the mo, but we have seen estimations of the 16GB version coming in at around $170 or 129 Euros. Expect a release date of around May.
