OK so it's just from the realm of rumour and fuzzy photos at the moment, but it seems that we might get a new MP3 player from Samsung by early next year.

The P3 is mooted to be the sequel to the YP-P2 and will allegedly add haptic (vibration) feedback as well as widgets like those from the company's TouchWiz interface for mobile phones, says Electronista.

And it will also look better with an aluminium instead of a plastic body and will also go up to 32GB in the memory stakes.

The 3-inch display, Bluetooth, FM radio and voice recorder should remain unchanged.

Samsung is estimated to give the P3 about 30 hours music playback and 5 hours of video.

Electronista also reckons it may appear at CES in January so watch this space.
