Craving more than monochrome? The display's the thing on Toshiba's Gigabeat MEG F20--a gorgeous, 2.2-in. color screen that can crisply handle JPEG images, slick menu icons and even animated graphics that pulsate in synch with your music. Unlike the Sony and Apple players, which are closely bound to the companies' Sony Connect and iTunes Music Store, the Gigabeat can download songs from most music sites, and there's a forthcoming $449 version with an enormous 60 GB of memory...

Managing your files is easier too: instead of using complicated, time-consuming software to synch up documents, you can just drag them from PC to PDA and back again.--By Wilson Rothman
...China, Nike is hardly viewed as the ugly imperialist. In fact, the company's celebration of American culture is totally in synch with the Chinese as they hurtle into a chaotic, freer time. In July, at a Nike three-on-three competition in the capital, a Chinese DJ named Jo Eli played songs like I'll Be Damned off his Dell computer. "Nike says play hip-hop because that's what blacks listen to," he says. "The government doesn't exactly promote these things. But we can all expose ourselves to something new." That sounds pretty close to a Chinese...
