kannuu Gets MP3 Player Design Win

Dallas-based kannuu, which is developing search software for content, and consumer electronics firm Coby Electronics said this morning that the two are in a strategic alliance to bundle kannuu's technology with future Coby MP3 players. Financial details of the alliance were not disclosed. The firms said that Coby will release its new MP3 players in stores in Q3 of this year; the players will include kannuu's software, which will be used to help users find MP3 files on the player. The companies claimed that the software will eliminate the need for users to search by artist, track, album, or genre on the player, and instead will present all matching results in one query.
