We are starting to wonder whether the Galaxy line of devices from Samsung will end up like the Eee PC range from Asus – after all, not only do we have a variety of Galaxy S smartphones, there is also the recently announced Galaxy Tab tablet device, and now, the Galaxy Player 50 which is actually a portable media player. Powered by Android 2.1 (why not Froyo?), the Galaxy Player 50 comes with a 3.2-inch display and is more than able to handle the likes of DivX, H.264 and other media formats. You can choose from either an 8GB or 16GB of internal memory, coupled with 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity and a 2-megapixel camera. Surprisingly, the Galaxy Player 50 supports the Android Market as well as other Google apps such as Google Maps Navigation and Gmail. Hopefully the games department for the Android Market will be vastly improved if it were to be able to hold a decent challenge against the App Store.
