PMP market heading for an upswing?

Electronics analysts at iSupplie are predicting a growth for portable video players in the next four years, as one of the few products in the consumer electronics industry with a positive projected future.

Even though iSuppli says CE products in general are expected to decline in sales by 3.6% from 2006 to 2011, it says that portable media devices will grow at a rate of 13% over the same period.


Of course, one area that PMPs will need to compete with is mobile phones. However, experts say that cell phone video is not going to make a major impact in the marketplace in most areas of the world in the next few years.
