Toshiba expands its Gigabeat V series

Toshiba announces the Gigabeat V401 and Gigabeat V801 portable media player.

With the introduction of the V801 and V401, Toshiba has expanded the Gigabeat V series of portable media players. The two new models feature a 80GB and 40GB hard drives respectively.

The 3.5-inch QVGA TFT screen has been upgraded to 4 inches and the 320 x 240 pixel resolution has been increased to 480x272. The players feature a sensor that automatically alters the brightness of the screen to correspond to surrounding light.

The H2C technology on the device claims to compensate for sound quality lost during audio compression by using its own algorithm to counter the audio compression algorithms of WMA and MP3 files.

The portable media players will be available in Japan on June 1st.
