Samsung YP-Z5 to lock horns with iPod Nano

Samsung’s YP-Z5 MP3 player comes in 2 capacities – 2GB and 4GB. It uses flash memory to provide a skip-free musical environment. The YP-Z5 has targeted the iPod Nano market with its competitive pricing structure ($199 to $249). Set to be released on March 5, the YP-Z5 supports “PlayForSure” WMA subscription music services, including Napster and Rhapsody. Could this give it the upper hand against the mighty Apple?
