When Saehan Information Systems unveiled its F10 at the Cebit consumer show in Hanover, few could have predicted its impact. The blocky gadget boasted a piffling 32MB of storage - enough for eight songs - and had to be hooked up to a computer via the serial port to load music at a tortuously slow speed. Saehan declared the format "audio for the new millennium" and boasted that its MPMan was "smaller than a floppy disk". It cost $250, and went on sale in Europe in the summer of that year.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DE5F75BE-51E3-4F6D-8909-183711DEDC81/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
