LAS VEGAS, NV -- 01/12/2006 -- CES -- X2 Corporation, a global manufacturer and direct marketer of digital convergence products, last week launched the X2V, the next generation of its award-winning line of Portable Media Players. Weighing in at a mere one half pound with a size smaller than a 3x5 photograph, this unit is the smallest, lightest and most versatile PMP (portable media player) on the market today, setting a new standard for design and feature set in the category. Like its predecessor, the MEGA View 566, the X2V is a versatile device that functions as a video player, photo viewer, MP3/WMA music player, portable storage device, personal digital assistant with calendar and contacts database and a voice recorder plus it adds a 6-megapixel (interpolated) digital camera and MPEG-4 camcorder. Coming standard with a 30GB hard drive and a SD/MMC/Memory Stick memory card slot, the 8-in-1 portable digital entertainment device sells for under $400. The X2V will be on display in X2's Booth #72240 located in the Sands Convention Center.

The X2V is the next generation Portable Multimedia Player allowing users the ability to play hours of MPEG-4 video with DVD quality video and CD quality audio using MPEG-4, plus it plays MP3/WMA audio all on a single device. X2V users can bring their favorite movie, TV shows, videos or music on the road plus with the digital camera and camcorder, they can record their own memories. With the large 30GB internal storage, users can record up to 120 hours of video so there is almost no fear of running out of tape. It can also be plugged into a TV or projector to watch and share movies, videos and photos on a bigger screen. The unit comes with a high-resolution 3.6" LCD Screen offering a clear, vibrant picture and an easy-to-use, interactive video menu with convenient navigation buttons for easy access.

The X2V features a 6-megapixel (interpolated) digital camera complete with flash and 4X Digital Zoom as well as a 640 x 480 resolution MPEG-4 digital camcorder. Its 30GB hard drive can also store over 15,000 songs, 150,000 digital photos, almost 1,000 hours of digital voice recording and/or 30GB of portable PC data storage. With its built-in 3-in-1 SD/MMC/memory Stick memory card slot the X2V can be used to backup, store and view your digital photos and features a one-button backup feature allowing for effortless transfer of data and photos making it the perfect digital camera companion.

"As a 8-in-1 device, the X2V is a complete portable digital entertainment center which comes in handy for many situations," raves Brandon LuTran, Vice President of X2 Corporation. "With the new digital camera and camcorder features, the X2V is ready to capture all your memories and play it back anywhere, anytime."
