This is soon enough to market that it's hard to blame the iPod nano (http://www.engadget.com/tag/iPodnano/) specifically for its appearance, but either way it seems that the Philips Cam is the newest member to the oh-so-small club of MP3 / camera combos. The new player is joined in its life of crime by the new Muse and Ariaz, which at last offer a higher-end aspect to Philips (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Philips/)' long-lackluster PMP lineup. The Cam does up a 1.8-inch screen, 8GB of storage and a 2 megapixel camera for $100, but the Muse has a full 3.2-inches of touchscreen, 16GB of flash, SD expansion and HDMI out for a mere $50 more. The Ariaz finds a simpler calling, with a 2.4-inch LCD, HDMI, 8GB and an $80 tag. We'll have to play with these to see if they're worth taking home from Walmart, but we're glad to see Philips is trying to stay in the game -- we can't all be lucky enough to be Zune HD owners.Philips Cam, Muse and Ariaz mark a renaissance for the boring PMP (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/13/philips-cam-muse-and-ariaz-mark-a-renaissance-for-the-boring-pm/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Wed, 13 Jan 2010 16:32:00 EST.
