Media player manufacturers are lining up to announce their products only days before the start of the CES 2010 exhibition. Yesterday, we saw the Viliv HD5, and today it’s the turn of Samsung’s new MyFit and IceTouch (YP-H1).

The Myfit has been designed with the energetic sportsman in mind. If running or jogging is the name of your game, the Myfit is going to be your fit. The device is packed with a host of sensors to measure things like the number of calories lost.

Available in either a choice of 8GB or 16GB, the MyFit’s file support is limited to MP3, WMA, OGG, AAC, and MP4 files.

The 16GB IceTouch will strike a chord with the traditional MP3 player fan-boy. The player with its unorthodox exterior design packs a 2-inch “transparent” AMOLED display with Samsung’s trademark TouchWiz Sweep (touchscreen) technology.

The device supports MP4V, WMV, H.264, Xvid, Divx video types and MP3, WMA, OGG, FLAC, AAC, M4A, WAV audio files. Let’s not forget that the player supports Dolby 5.1-channel technology. Available in a choice of either pink, silver, purple or gray, the player includes a photo viewer and FM radio.

Both players are expected to see a release date of early next year.

      Transparent display… Wow, it’s incredible! I’m looking forward to see it in real. I saw another strong side of Samsung through this CES.

      Good point, Zeeroh. Yes, I want reasonable prices for both players too but not gonna be so surprised even Samsung gives high price, cuz I think they’re pretty much new generation of mp3 players – but I want REASONABLE prices! lol I found a video about MyFit and it had more info. I’ll leave the web address here just in case if anybody interested. :) http://view.break.com/1636458
