Is Samsung too late with the Galaxy Player 4 and 5s?

I was looking at the freshly announced galaxy players and while the devices look cool, I kind of thing Samsung is doomed to fail with their launch. The way I see it is people are kind of over the ipods. They were huge forever but they aren't really selling any more and Ive head rumors that apple is going to kill two of the lines and just leave the ones ruing iOS like the touch. If they thought there was still any moneyto be made theyd be sueing Samsung left and right. The fact that they aren't really seems to indicate that they are moving on. And I think people are too now. Who needs a portable mp3 player when everyone has a smartphone and a tabelt which cost the same. What do you guys think?
