Report: iRiver Plans Android iPod Touch Rival, E-Book Reader, Web Tablet

Some exciting details of iRiver's possible upcoming product range have leaked online due to an Australian-based product dealer.

Current.com.au reports that the local product manager outlined details of an Android-based device, possibly called the K2, that would go head-to-head with Apple's iPod Touch. The K2 would have a 3.5 inch touchscreen, Wi-Fi, a built in Web browser, accelerometer, Bluetooth, and maybe even a digital TV tuner.

The report says that the "project is not yet 100 per cent signed off", and decisions on storage capacities and screen type still have to be made.

The product manager went on to tease that iRiver is also working on an e-book reader and Crunchpad-style Web tablet, but provided no further details. With the Financial Times reporting that an Apple Tablet could launch in September, these holidays could be lots of fun for gadget fans.
