KnoxNews provides a preview of Samsung's Napster-branded portable music player (photo in article) that will be co-marketed with Napster's upcoming music service. Napster 2.0 will be launching officially on October 29th and Samsung's new Napster player will be priced comparably to the iPod at $399 for a 20GB model.
The article details that the Samsung player will be roughly the same dimensions and weight as the iPod, but also provide line-in audio, an FM-transmitter, 10 hour battery life, and integration with Napster 2.0 jukebox software.
Early limitations noted by the reviewer include limited functionality of the FM transmitter, more complicated controls than the iPod, and bugs with transferring songs and playback.
Napster is considered by some to be Apple's biggest competition in the music download arena.
Update: Samsung's information page on the upcoming product.
