25 Mar 09 mintpass mintpad (Another iriver news? Kinda.)

As many people here know already, mintpass is a company that was created by iriver’s former CEO Yang Duk-Jun. He was disappointed with the progress of iriver; although it’s one of the biggest Korean DAP companies; so decided to start a new company based on networking. The mintpass mintpad has been available in Korea for nearly half a year now but will be invading international markets in a few months time. I’m feeling alot of deja vu, since iriver started selling internationally in the same way. The pricing for the mintpad will be around $150 so is a pretty nice deal for a device that’s quite capable. I’ve actually had about a week of play time with the device, so I’m pretty confident with this device - and therefore organized the key features here in anticipation of the release.
