CITY, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 4, 2002--TDK Electronics
Corporation-- TDK, a leader in digital recording and playback
solutions, today announced it is now shipping its second-generation
MOJO 620 CD-MP3 digital jukebox.
Created as the ultimate high-performance, easy-to-use and versatile CD-MP3 player, MOJO 620 is the first addition to TDK's planned family of MOJO CD-MP3 digital jukeboxes. The newly designed MOJO 620 builds on the success of TDK's critically acclaimed original MOJO with exciting new navigation, playlist organization and playback capabilities such as full ID3 support, the industry's largest 4-line display, upgradeable firmware and a unique Lyric Sync(TM) display feature that lets users view the lyrics of favorite songs during playback. MOJO 620: Powerful Features For Maximum Musical Enjoyment Like its predecessor, TDK's new MOJO 620 offers full artist, song title, album and musical genre navigation plus easy, on-the-go playlist creation. MOJO 620 combines the economy and unlimited storage capacity of CD-based MP3 players with the navigational flexibility of expensive solid-state and hard disk-based devices. Designed for maximum portability and versatility, the boldly styled blue, silver and dark gray MOJO 620 is built for maximum durability and features 8-minute ZeroSkip(TM) anti-shock skip protection, plus high-quality headphones for great-sounding, uninterrupted music listening. The player also offers upgradeable firmware to accommodate possible future updates for enhanced functionality. TDK's MOJO 620 provides all the tools needed to access and enjoy favorite music--with no waiting or time-consuming searches for the right song. MOJO 620's exclusive Navitrack(TM) functionality lets users fast-forward and rewind through individual MP3 and CD tracks, as well as scan through an entire playlist, playing just the first five seconds of each song until locating the desired track. And for those who like to keep their MOJO tucked in a pocket or bag while enjoying on-the-go music, TDK's ReFlex(TM) headphone-cord remote control provides easy access to all player functions. Unique Display Capabilities and Industry's Largest 4-Line LCD Display Thanks to TDK's xxLCD(TM) the industry's largest backlit LCD display, navigation and reading track information is easier than ever before - and MOJO 620 offers several unique display features that set it apart from all competitors. For example, a special ``Big Font'' feature combines the middle two lines of display information into a single easy-to-read line. MOJO 620 also features TDK's exclusive LyricSync(TM) display feature, which lets users load the lyrics of favorite tunes and view them on the LCD display during playback. And for the ultimate in personalization, TDK's new Logo Editor features Windows® PC programming software that lets users create their own screen logo, using custom icons or even their own graphics and photos, to be displayed whenever MOJO 620 is turned on. Check the Music's ID In Seconds! MOJO 620 includes TDK's state-of-the-art Navitrack(TM)software, the world's most advanced CD-MP3 digital jukebox navigation technology. Navitrack quickly reads and sorts the music ID information in each MP3 file in just seconds, scanning every music file on an MP3-CD and displaying the information on the LCD screen. MOJO 620 can search discs by artist, album, song title or musical genre, with navigation keys that make it fast and easy to find favorite songs. Equally exciting, MOJO 620 lets users create custom playlists--and remembers the playlists for up to five MP3-CD discs. And because MOJO 620 features ID3 tag support for both Version 1 and Version 2, it's quicker and more reliable than ever to track music using the information encoded on each MP3 file's ID3 tag (artist, track, song, genre, music style, track length, date recorded, etc.). Listeners can also use the ID3 support feature to customize your MP3 music collection with additional music-related materials such as artwork and album information. More Music--Fewer Batteries Unlike power-hogging hard disk-based MP3 devices, MOJO 620 plays for up to 10 hours on two high capacity AA batteries. MOJO 620's superior play time capability is the result of advanced power management circuitry that fills the unit's anti-shock memory buffer with up to eight minutes of MP3 music, then pauses the CD drive motor to conserve energy. ``Since we introduced MOJO 620 at CES 2002 last January, anticipation for this unique product has continued to build,'' noted Yong Park, TDK Product Manager. ``Its new styling and user-friendly features, combined with all the advantages like on-the-go playlist creation and advanced navigation that made our original MOJO such a success, truly make the MOJO 620 the ultimate portable music player.'' The TDK MOJO 620 is currently available at an estimated street price of $149. LyricSync(TM), Navitrack(TM), ReFlex(TM),
