Philips GoGear SA3300 joins 8GB crowd

Without any formal introduction, Philips has slipped out its new GoGear SA3385 jukebox. Expanding the amount of flash storage from 4GB to 8GB, the player appears to share the same features as the reference SA3300 and gives more space for MPEG-4, SMV, and WMV videos on the 2.4-inch LCD as well as up to 2,000 MP3 or WMA songs. FM radio tuning and photo viewing are also onboard. Battery life is similar at 20 hours of pure audio and 4 hours of 320x240 video.

Philips has yet to announce pricing or ship dates for the SA3385, but already lists several versions for multiple regions; the SA3385/37 is destined for both Canada and the US and is most likely to be announced within the next several weeks significantly below $250. [via Anything But iPod]
