08 Jan 10 CES 2010: Samsung Tic Toc - a trendy, portable Sansa Shaker?

It looks like Samsung is thinking outside of the box for their newest line of players. First, there was the IceTouch, a touchscreen player with a cool transparent screen, and now we have the Tic Toc (aka YP-S1). It’s a colorful little player that’s controlled by motion. You increase the player by shaking it, and decrease the volume by turning it upside down (while pressing the volume button). Check out a quick demo of it courtesy of “DigiTalk News”.

The idea isn’t exactly new. Sandisk did the same thing with kid-friendly Sansa Shaker. Still, it’s nice to see the technology in a more stylish and compact form-factor. The Samsung Tic Toc will be available in 2 and 4GB capacities later this year.
