RCA's H116 offers a low price tag, 6GB of music storage, compatibility with PlaysForSure services, and 16 hours of battery life – too bad the screen isn’t in color.
At first glance, the specs for the RCA H116 seem promising – a 6GB hard drive, 16 hours of battery life, a light 2.7-ounce weight, and a body around the size of a business card. All looks great, until you notice that the H116 only offers a 1.5-inch, black-and-white display. While this is not a deal breaker, it makes the H116 seem like a step backward (considering that almost every MP3 player has a color screen now).
Aside from the LCD, the H116 has a lot to offer including an FM transmitter for hooking the H116 directly to your car’s stereo, earbuds, a generous 100 free MP3 downloads from eMusic, and free trial subscriptions to Yahoo Music Unlimited and from Audible.

The H116 will be available in July 2006 and priced at $169.
