Not much info around on this at the moment - but we've just spotted this interesting looking unit from Nextbeat. Here's The skinny so far...

"nextbeat is a fully integrated professional DJ system, incorporating intuitive touch sensor controls and innovative live performance functions. Its wireless portable control unit enables performers to move free from the main device, resulting in more dynamic and energetic live performances, contrasting to the traditional style of DJs performing inside booths. nextbeat combines two digital players, a mixer, effector and sampler in a single lightweight and compact unit. In addition, nextbeat does not require a PC like many other DJ systems."
