Wired: Sony Prototyping Personal Video Player

Posted by timothy on from the all-the-cool-kids dept.

Cinematique writes "Wired is running an article about Apple beating Sony in the personal music player fight. The author suggest that Sony should skip its planned answer to the iPod and focus instead on a portable video player. But there's a catch: the legality of the content such video players would use."

    I haven't seen anyone mention the Archos AV320 Mediabox.

    It has a 3.8" screen, plays MPEG4, MP3's, and records from any video source (encodes into MPEG4), including NTSC and PAL video.
