RAmos iMovie T8 offers 32GB on the Cheap
Posted by Mark Wilson at 10:57 PM on August 7, 2008
We're always on the prowl for the latest iClone, and this RAmos iMovie is looking like an...interesting...replacement for the iPod touch. Featuring a slim 10mm aluminum-magnesium frame, the T8 doesn't seem to have multitouch, but it will play back RMVB, AVI, FLV, WMV, MPG, MP4, DAT, and 3GP on its 4.3" WQVGA (480×272) display (or through built-in TV-out). And with the 32GB version costing just US$219, you know you're tempted to find out how well this thing would actually work. [Zol via PMPToday]

apple already owns the name imovie, this company will soon face a storm of lawsuits.

"Now, as for sound quality, interface usability, tech support, software compatibility, added functionality, device sturdiness, international retailers.."
what about flac, ogg support, information about the battery and how long it takes before it's empty, the actual size of the device and information about the chips used for sound processing.

Looks pretty slick, I am always down to try out a cheaper alternative and I do enjoy my video players.
Great for business trips...hate pulling out the laptop no matter how small they seem to get

@vinnyr: Actually, I own it. Step out of line and no one can use it.

If they could have it transfer photos from memory cards, they'd have me sold.

@PlayerX: They're basically admitting their product has no character of its own, so they're trying to leech some off of Apple....
I'm a student of Industrial Design, and this sort of thing just cheeses me to no end.... Design with a purpose BEYOND the way the thing looks!

I know this thing is supposed to pull people away from an iPod Touch or something, but why the heck are they still calling it an "iMovie"?! I can't stand non-Apple names like this. Who do they think they're fooling?!

@PlayerX: I would've called it the Heart of Gold, and it would randomly play videos on an infinite loop.

I think the Gap Product(Red) ad thats on the screen indicates how little this company cares about copyright.
