Foliage pattern is about its only distinguishing feature.

With Mother's Day still several months away, we were caught somewhat off guard by this new media player from Hong Kong-based Sysbay. The reason: We're not used to seeing gadgets adorned with flowery patterns until that time of year.
But we can't blame the company for trying--after all, if people are willing to buy anything with Hello Kitty's mouthless face on it, there are bound to be fans of the foliage depicted around the PF500's 7-inch screen, as Engadget says. And that would be welcome news, because it's about the only thing that differentiates this device in a market that gets more crowded by the day with new models.
