iRiver E100 is Brushed Aluminum Goodness!

"It seems like it was ages ago that we heard rumors of an aluminum iriver E100... then at the end of November, the E100 Season 2 appeared and the plastic was still in abundance. The E50 (supposedly pictured above) is, however, another tale entirely. The slim, brushed aluminum encased PMP -- which will come in 2GB, 4GB and 8GB models -- boasts a 1.8-inch color LCD, an FM tuner, and gets a rumored 52-hours of audio life. We don't have full specs yet, but the players will apparently appear in January with the 4GB costing about €69 (or about $90)."
Reminds me of a flash-based Zune with out the control pad, but instead featuring a sweet brushed aluminum finish. Curious if it also features a glass screen, as that would make for a very sexy little player.
