Chalk up another design award for iriver. This time it’s the iF Product Design Award. Sure wish iriver would get busy designing players geared for the U.S. and abroad!

We spotted an iriver NV in the wild today. Actually, it is sitting in my car where it has been for the past month. I was able to have one sent from Korea and it has been my companion for this past month on my daily commute to work. Although the navigation does not function in the U.S. (yet), I do enjoy music and video while driving. The large 7″ LCD is a pleasure and with SD cards now at 16GB, I have plenty of room for lots of media. I’ve snapped a few pics to share.
