MPIO MG300 Double D-Pad PMP

A thing about consumer electronics is that most companies want their design to be as minimalist as possible, but not everyone can come up with something as revolutionary as iPod wheel whose creator has some problems outdoing itself.

MPIO feels that it's not necessary to put all the controls into a single interface so they go with a double D-pads approach, which makes use 8 labels for all the directional buttons. You'll find rewind, fast forward, volume on the top D-pad, and play/pause, back, menu and record on the another pad. As for the specs of this MG300 PMP, you certainly won't find anything groundbreaking given it's just a PMP, but these are some of the details.
