AAC Player for Palm OS

When I recently reviewed The Missing Sync, I mentioned that I was looking for an AAC Player for Palm devices. Thanks to reader dutchtrumpet for pointing me to Kinoma Player 3 EX, which can display JPG files and play back Kinoma Movies containing H.263, Cinepak Mobile, ADPCM, Yamaha ADPCM, or uncompressed audio, as well as 3GPP, MP4, MOV, MPEG-4 video and AAC audio files.

Features include:

View MPEG-4 video, listen to AAC audio and view JPEG photos.

Zoom, Rotate and Pan movies and photos.

Plays many 3GP (mobile phone), iTunes, and QuickTime files

Sort songs by album, artist or title

State-of-the-art MPEG-4 video and AAC audio compression let you pack more on a memory card.

Stream movies using mobile phone, 802.11 and Bluetooth networks

I downloaded the trial version and copied to the /palm/programs/kinoma folder on an expansion card a couple of AAC encoded songs, and a few moments later I was jamming to "Mysterious Ways." Note that the Kinoma Player can't play songs purchased from iTunes Music Store.

Kinoma Player 3 EX is $19.95. There is a two-week trial available.

Update: TreoCentral now has a review of the product
