This is perhaps the shortest press release from the first day of Photokina - “a digital camera, image viewer and a music player all in one” is virtually all the information that Olympus are sharing with us.

Setting life to music

The Olympus m:robe - musical memory maker

Cologne , 27 September 2004 - Music and images are such an important part of memory. Out of nowhere a piece of music can set the pulse racing with vivid memories of life?s most potent moments, while a picture can paint a 1000 words. By combining the two the Olympus m:robe allows you to capture and remember events in an evocative manner.

The m:robe is a digital camera, image viewer and a music player all in one, so it’s easy to combine personal pictures with the tunes that make the difference between a picture and a memory. Amazing adventures and memorable experiences can be recorded in photo albums and combined with tracks that evoke the mood of the moment. The m:robe literally sets life to music.

The m:robe looks great too. An eye-catching minimalist design, it is the next ‘must have’ for the style conscious. And if it’s just the tunes you?re after, m:robe is also available as a music player-only version.

The Olympus m:robe is planned for release in early 2005 ? Price TBC.
