Pebble design MP3, Yepp YP-S2 by Samsung



I recently heard the news of the pebble concept MP3 YP-S2 by Samsung. As you see in those pictures, this concept has a pebble shape and is very simple design without LCD. The capacity is 1GB/2GB. The Color will be black/white/red/green/purple. The weakness is a small capacity, and the design got a good review. The playing time is about 13 hours, and the price is expected to be no larger than 50 thousand won. I think it will be good to listen to music with hanging on a neck like an accessory.
