Live from Nikon’s Press Conference: The UP300x Hands-on

David’s back from a Nikon press conference in Harajuku (Tokyo). Today they didn’t unveil a new DSLR with a Full HD video recording function, but two new sets of headphones, the Media Port UP300x and UP300 (basic version).

So what can you do with them?

A lot of things, their multimedia playback headsets for listening to music and watching movies (equivalent to a 50-Inch image).

The UP300x features a built-in motion sensor that allows for hands free operation (volume adjustment, etc…), up to 8GB of flash memory, Wi-Fi b/g, USB port, and two Sanyo eneloop rechargeable batteries. It supports WMV9, MPEG-1, MPEG-2 video files, and MP3, AAC, WMA9 audio files. Compatible with HTML 4.01, JavaScript, Flash Version 7, other media contents are downloadable from Nikon’s service.

What are David’s thoughts on this new PMP?

Not bad but kind of funny, especially coming from Nikon and noted for producing cameras. David says video quality is good, but not easy to watch with only one eye (he doesn’t like watching videos on this kind of thing).

Sorry we have no further information, David was too captivated by Nikon’s model… Take a look at his picture gallery.
