Usually, people assume that all touch screen PMP’s are knock offs the iPod Touch, they are usually right, however, this new Coby PMP is not really like the iPod Touch at all. In fact, it is more like Samsung’s P2.

To begin with the Coby MP-835, it measures out at 52 x 97 x 10mm, which is pretty thin and compact. It features a main button located on the top left corner, other than typical device buttons being in the center of the bottom. It sports a nice 3-inch screen with a resolution of 480 x 272. Additionally, it comes with USB connectivity and SD memory expansion. It supports a variety of formats including MP3, WMA, OGG, WMV, JPG, BMP, GIF and TXT. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have support for a whole lot of video formats. So far, it is available in 2GB and 4GB models, however, no word on pricing or availability just yet.
