ahh Knob welcome to the next generation rockchip club, but is it actually 3" as the generic ones i have seen have all quoted 2.6" or 2.8", the KNC one is 3" though, anyway thats just nit-picking

i have my vx747 rockchip from them on the way, got tracing number and all on the way#

must say this, though i do ot like most of the stuff they sell, they are very quick to send and answer emails, just wish they would sell some branded player, as well as these and get rid of all the older shite

I found a chinese manufacturer called BALLET that advertase this player on his website http://www.qs-ballet.com/product.asp?id=625
The site is written in chinese so I can't read the specs. Smile

Here's the KNC 700

I have seen a number of Chinese and Honk Kong vendors selling media players that look like this. This seems to be amongst the latest "public brand" models. "Public Brand" is a phrase that basically means lots of companies are manufacturing what is basically the same product. They use the reference design from the chipset solution company for both hardware and software (like Rockchip for example) and then use the same industrial design on the outside. Since this is in the China "Public Brand" there are no patents or copywrights associated with it in China (well, there may be one or more USA, EU, or Japan patents or copywrights violated but that is beyond the scope of this posting). IMHO, I would recommend staying away from these public brand products as you never know what you are going to get.

Sony?

There is also available from epathchina http://www.epathchina.com/8gb-30-inch-tft-lcd-screen-mp5-player-red-black-p-922.html but is priced higher than this one from Tinydeal

Yep, just look at the trouble the the ONDA vx858 clones caused, now they are public they are an absolute pile of TAT, and that is being generous

IMHO opinion we should really stay away from all unbranded cheap players and if you can afford it at least get something branded from one of chinas bigger names

but we all love a bargin and do harbor the hope that we may actually get a stonking player with all the bells and whistles for less than £30($60) Smile

Yes, all of those VX858 clones were rediculous. I saw five different Chinese vendors at CES Las Vegas this past January with different VX858 clones or variations on that.

I don't see any problem buying an unbranded player provided it really is the the unbranded version of the name brand manufacturered by the same OEM that manufacturers for the name brand. Both Onda and Teclast, for example, are only sales, marketing, and distribution entities. They outsouce their engineering and manufacturing. These OEMs will sell unbranded versions outside of China.

Yes I think this is going to be the new Chinese "Peoples Player".

can't wait to see what it's like when I get it.

I love messing with these unbranded players just to see what I can get out of them. (I must be completely out of my mind!)

I had it's predecessor, this player:-

I've had it for over 14 months now, opened it up countless times and flashed and reflashed it over and over again and I still can't kill it, I guess I must have been lucky and got a good un.

I just hope this new "public brand" is as durable Wink

Yes, you can get lucky with an unbranded public brand player. You might even get one that was made in the same factory as Onda's or Teclast's if you are lucky (they have fantastic quality). I would personally stay away from those iPOD nano clones.

Keep us posted when you get this player, I'd love to read your review of it.

Hell it's like waiting for Christmas.
