I thought the Creative Zen Mozaic was bad enough but Sony have managed to raise the level of ugly with their PMX-U55 personal media player. I am not sure which bit of the above image I dislike the most, the picture of the dog or the media player itself. I just hope that the device looks better in real life than the computer generated version of it. Thankfully I won’t need to look upon it again for a while as it is currently only available in China but I am sure it won’t be long before it invades the shops over here.

There is not even anything in its specifications to redeem it:

  • 2GB flash memory
  • 2.4″(320×240) display
  • Mpeg4, H.264/AVC video formats
  • MP3, WMA, AAC audio formats
  • 68.3
