Mede8er heeft dinsdag versie 3.0 uitgebracht van de firmware voor zijn MED500X-mediaspeler. Dit apparaat is opgebouwd rondom een RTD107-processor van Realtek en is in staat om foto-, video- en geluidsbestanden af te spelen. Op ons eigen GoT-forum loopt een onderwerp over deze mediaspeler. Nieuw in versie 3.0 zijn onder andere een opgefriste gebruikersinterface en de mogelijkheid om cover-art te gebruiken voor videobestanden.
