Dell hdd mp3 player

It’s sad to know that Dell is going to stop producing its harddisk based portable mp3 players. However, Dell Ditty, a flash memory based mp3 player with 512mb capacity, will be remain in production.

In fact, Dell quietly discontinue all high end Dell DJ series in late December and early January without doing much announcement regarding this incident.

Quoted:
“We saw an opportunity to streamline and consolidate our portfolio,” Dell spokesman Liem Nguyen said. “We made a decision to transition from the hard-drive products to flash players at the beginning of this year.”

Personally, judging from the the statement made by Liem Nguyen, I think more flash mp3 players will be released by Dell sooner or later. In other words, Dell is not dropping the whole production line of its portable mp3 player.

Anyway, for those who favor Dell’s harddisk based mp3 players, the company is offering Creative’s Zen MP3 player as an replacement.
