This mp3 player runs on the Windows Portable Media Center technology, has a brilliant 2.4″ QVGA display, an FM tuner, and is either the 30 gb version (the S30) or the 60 gb version (the S60).  The Toshiba Gigabeat S will ship from Japan in the Red, Black, and White versions later this month for $299 (for the S30) or $399 (for the S60).
