Aside from the new Android-ready speaker docks, Philips also announced a new GoGear media player. The GoGear Connect 3 is an Android 2.3 Gingerbread-based device with a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen and Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing its owners to expand its functionality with third-party apps. Also included with the GoGear Connect 3 is a Pandora-like app for discovering new music, as well as preloaded codecs to ensure all popular video formats can be played. Speaking of videos, Philips says its baby can handle 720p HD clips, which is nice (and kinda unexpected for a small media player).
Of course, the electronics giant made sure the sounds quality is on place. In that sense, GoGear Connect 5 features FullSound, Sound Personalization and Surround for Movies, delivering the “superior sound that the Philips GoGear range is renowned for.”
Finally, along with the players itself, users also get the PC software Philips Songbird, which is used for syncing music from your PC. Pricing was not announced…

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
