Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c91264)
has announced the addition of "China PMP Industry & Market Report,
2007-2008" to their offering
The PMP market has started approaching saturation in many advanced
countries. PMP sales rely more and more on their own upgrading and
updating. So, iSuppli forecasts that the compound average growth rate of
PMP shipment will be only 4.3 percent in the coming several years, which
is a plunge, compared to 96.1 percent recorded in the period 2002-2007.
The influx of a large number of manufacturers and especially a buildup
in domestic chip producers have enabled PMP manufacturers to launch
low-cost products successively, which has lead to a sharp fall in PMP
prices and a remarkable increase in PMP sales. In 2007, China PMP market
sales were about 2.99 million units, of which, 2.38 million units were
for the sales of flash memory, amounting to 79.5 percent.
In 2007, China PMP market was highlighted doubtlessly by the increase of
chips supporting RMVB format and related products. In the first half of
2007, the launch of ADI Blackfin BP533 decoder chip opened up new
prospects for RMVB video player. Later on Ingenic and Rock Chips also
rolled out their chips of supporting RMVB format -- Jz4740 and RK27XX.
Other chip manufacturers are eager to launch their chips supporting RMVB
as well.
Aigo and Newman, the two domestic big PMP brands, have actively launched
products supporting RM and RMVB formats. Aigo has upgraded the function
of supporting RMVB and RM formats to a product concept, MP5, to
highlight its marketing characteristics, while Newman said that all of
its products in 2008 will support RM and RMVB formats.
Firstly, the report makes an analysis and forecast of PMP markets
(shipment and prices) both at home and abroad. Secondly, the report also
forecasts the development trends of PMP products in the future based on
the survey of PMP configuration changes in the market and analysis of
new products launched by main PMP manufacturers. Finally, the report
makes a study on the overall situation of China PMP industry, including
25 design companies and 40 PMP terminal manufacturers.
