Yup, the Spinn by iRiver actually has a haptic feedback touchscreen!

The official spec on iriver’s Korean site also says battery life will last 24-hours (not 27) and I can’t see evidence of the promised SD slot. It’s not even in the specs!

The clean (some say boring) lines of the 10.7-mm thick metal and plastic case that sports a 3.3-inch, 480 x 272 pixel AMOLED display, T-DMB TV, Bluetooth, and the new analog SPINN Wheel.

Its currently on pre-order for South Korea with the 4GB model fetching 259,000KRW (about $259) or 8GB for 299,000KRW (about $299).

It’s due for release in the UK next month - well, in a few days/weeks.

iRiver has followed up the launch of its iPod rival, the Spinn PMP, with an updated model for those lucky Koreans!

The new P10 features a 800×480 res 4.3 inch LCD,  33GB of internal memory, supports WMV and MPEG videos and Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (the TV version of DAB).

It also has handwriting recognition as well several dictionaries including English, Chinese, Japanese.

It can also be used as an e-Book reader as it supports PDF, Word and Excel.

Two versions will be available - a basic version (without DMB) for 200 euros, and a pro version (with DMB) for 250 euros - yup, lets hope we can use those Euros to buy one over here soon!
