Lenovo has a new digital music player, the Easy Cube M500.

The M500 is quite mobiBlu-esque, right down to rounded corners of it’s similarly-cubic competition, the DAH-1500i. Lenovo however has replaced the display screen with a speaker, ramped up the dimensions to 70 mm (2.75 in) cubed, thrown in 4 AA batteries and an SD/MMC expansion slot. Supports constant/variable bit rates of 32Kbs to 320 Kbps, MP3 & WMA formats. Inexpensive at 499 Yuan / $62.

Market segment seems to be the cost-avoiding, headphone-averse, immobile tier.
