Shinco PMP-1700 multimedia player

S
ometimes you're going to have to spend some time travelling, and rather than bust out your battery-draining laptop just to watch movies on, you'll need yourself something like the Shinco portable HDD media-players.

These record and store more than just movies (up to 50 complete films!), or also store up to 8,000 songs or 400,000 100kb pictures with a built in Compact Flash card reader! Enjoy a wide range of media with the Shinco PMP-1700 multimedia player.

Elegant and compact, the PMP-1700 will amaze you with its 40GB hard drive and hi-resolution 7" TFT LCD monitor to watch all your MPEG2, MPEG 4, DivX or DivX Pro videos.

Share the fun using the dual hi-fi stereo headphone sockets and the flip-up screen with 180° viewing angels; and more.

This is top-notch take-along entertainment! Its 16:9 aspect ratio capability offers a theater-like widescreen picture, while the built-in stereo speakers provide awesome audio to complement the view.

After owning this amazing player for a week, I continue to be amazed. It works well on the removable battery and plays DVDs better than my $110 Digix set top player, at least so far.

Icuiti DV920

W
atch when you go? If you want to watch a movie while you're on the go, but you can't stand looking at Angelina Jolie's boobs on a tiny 4 inch screen.

Enter the Icuiti DV920, a video eyewear fresh out of CES 2006 that offers you an illusion of a immensely larger 42-inch screen viewed from about 10 feet away. Weighing around 99 grams for the display unit, it's reasonably light for use while on the train or public transport.

Running on two AA alkaline batteries, the DV920 can be kept going for up to 4.5 hours, which keeps it in line with the iPod 60GB's battery life.

Just make sure you watch where you're going, or you're gonna regret the damage bumping into a lamp post will do to this pretty.

The bespectacled can use it, too, since it comes with two independent dioptric adjustments (approx. +2 to -6 diopters). With a pair of this baby on our nose bridge, Ridge Racer on the PSP will probably never look better.
