iLuv readies 9-inch Portable Media Player for iPods and DVDs


Although this has nothing really to do with cell phones I really like the fact that you hook up your iPhone to this bad boy. Haha I swear technology is amazing nowadays, and people are so creative when it comes to inventing something. iLuv has a new 9-inch wide-screen portable DVD player, the i1166, that integrates a dock for iPods with video capabilities. The device also has an SD-card slot and USB port (for connecting storage devices) and it supports playback of DivX video files and JPEG images.

iLuv says the i1166 Portable Multimedia Player for iPod and DVDs will arrive in March, but its price hasn't been determined yet. By comparison, the company's 8.4-inch i1155 carries a list price price of $269.99 but sells online for just over $200.
