Sumvision’s new Wiki Pro media player stands out from the Chinese DAP crowd because it seems to be directly available only in the UK. Sporting a 1.8-inch TFT display (120 x 160 resolution, 65K colors), the 2GB device features an FM tuner and recorder, photo browser, games, text viewer, AMV video support, and an integrated lithium battery that can be charged via the included USB cable or power adapter.

The oddly named player measures 3.11 x 1.65 x 0.47 inches and also doubles as a USB flash drive. Available now for about $115.
