Venzero LINQ mini
Prolific jukebox maker Venzero has just unveiled the LINQ mini, a player which the company boasts is the smallest player of its kind. The mini version of the LINQ still shares Wi-Fi and uses it to give the device a far wider range of music. Over 9,000 Internet radio stations are accessible whenever the device is in range of a hotspot, Venzero says. Like much of the company's line, the smaller LINQ also has a unique audio tagging feature that will identify a song and provide a download link based on a short audio clip.
About five hours of continuous Internet radio playback is available, with twenty hours of offline playback of MP3 and WMA tracks. An FM radio provides a third option for listening to music. Venzero has declined providing a release date but says the LINQ mini will be available both the US and Britain with 1GB of flash storage. American pricing is set at $99, while the UK model sells for 69 pounds.
