The new models are the i-Blue717, i-Blue727, i-Blue737, i-Blue747, i-Blue757, and the i-tracker. Out of these 6 new models, the last three, are significantly different than the others.

The last one, i-tracker, is a GPS tracker which includes a GSM module so it can talk to a PC or send SMS to pre-determined cell phone number.

The i-Blue717, 727, and 737 all feature a patent-pending technologies such as Smart Power Save Mechanism and Fuzzy Auto On/Off so they know to shutdown automatically when in idle, consuming 65% less power than the rest of the receivers in the market while lasting for more than 30 hours.
