TheKompany Releases DivX Software For Zaurus

An anonymous reader writes: "InfoSync has an article on DivX for the Zaurus. Finally, you can watch movies on the go!" Between this and theKompany's ogg player, the Zaurus looks cool. It's a little chunkier perhaps, but another reader points out that Archos is now taking pre-orders for its do-everything Jukebox Multimedia device, which might be another option for those seeking a portable anything box.

I saw bourne-identity listed in the playlist on the picture. Has this movie been released on DVD yet?

All it is is a camcorder pointed at a bash prompt and a guy typing "who am i". Bourne Identity.

Someone needs to think of the long-term effects

It seems like everyone in the world, particularly the US and Japan, is looking towards more and more sensory overload for happiness. I mean, seriously, do we need a cell phone, PDA, pager, and a DivX player all vying for our attention every moment of our day? Will this make us any happier, or will it push us further into becoming the attention-less, cynical pricks we silently feel ourselves becoming?

All these stimuli are really going to do a number on us in the long run, mark my words. I fear for two generations from now, who will grow up in a world of stimulation we can't even currently dream of.

Mplayer ( %100 GPL ) already runs on Zaurus

Here is a Mplayer-Zaurus Howto

Now to make some movies!

To go with this I have put up a howto for making videos that can play on the Zaurus.
