As far as MP4 players go, it would be an understatement to say that the M70 Plus was a big player, its an absolute monster of a player, its the first player that i have ever held that felt awkward for it to be held with only one hand, thats right, youre going to need to hold it with both your hands. Chuwi basically used their previous M70 player design (which ran on the RK2806 chip) and rebuilt in the internal hardware around the CC1600 media chip. Just like most current CC1600 players, it has the same abilities and features, even the same UI layout. However the biggest selling point for this player is its screen, not only is it large, but it has a resolution of 800 x 480.

Patriot Box Office 1080p High-Definition Media Player PCMPBO25 (Black) Review
I won’t outline the many features as they can be quickly viewed at Patriot’s website. This is a shockingly good device (for lack of a better word), especially given the price. It’s a very new product category. While it plays nice with pc’s and macs, it is a standalone device that does not require a computer to feed from. It even has a built in BitTorrent client that can be used independently of a computer. I don’t know how much power it draws but it’s probably very little ( Read more...(189 words, 1 image, estimated 45 secs reading time)
The Roku SD box was incredibly easy to install and connect to my home wireless network. The device has performed flawlessly over the last two months. The video and sound quality of all Netflix streamed videos was amazing – everything was crisp and clear. I have not purchased anything via Amazon on Demand, so I can’t speak to that. The Roku SD box is an extremely affordable way to access Netflix content through your television set. However, if you are a person who watches a lot of online video through Youtube, Vimeo, etc., or have a lot of video on your desktop/laptop from Itunes or other sources, you should buy something else (or ‘roll your own’ – [...]).

Brite-View BV-6000P 1080p HD Multimedia Player with RM / RMVB & DTS, Black Review
I have used the unit to play MPEG2 high definition videos recorded by Sony HDV camcorders as well as MPEG2 videos from digitized Hi8 tapes. I have also played video and JPEG photos with the unit. Here are my experience with the unit.
Pros: Handles the high definition video without problem. Can play at 2X speed smoothly. The automatic preview is quite convenient, allowing one to see the video while go through the file listing without the need for any extra button pushes. The RGB video outputs are good for me since I hooked the unit to an order Sony projection TV that does not have HDMI. Handles both the external hard drive ( I connected it to a 1.5 TB drive) and the flash drive without any problem. Read more...(490 words, 1 image, estimated 1:58 mins reading time)
Almost everyone these days who does not already own an MP3 player of some kind is probably thinking of buying one. Many will want just an mp3 player but many others will be more interested in a full-on digital mediaplayer which will show images and play video rather than just mp3 music tracks.
The type of mp3 player required will depend on what it is to be used for. If you are trying to get or stay fit and regularly visit the gym or go running in the park then the ability to replay music in a very small portable unit, such as the iPod Shuffle, is probably all you need.

I had the Roku SD for 4 days. I love it! My only problem is that its introduction I forgot my encryption key wirelessly, so I had to go through my ISP to reset it. Is not the fault of Roku.
Armed with the right button, the set-up was easy. There are so many free channels to choose. I love New in English from different countries. Mediafly has "podiobooks' to listen, not to mention a variety of podcast entertainment. Read more...(374 words, 1 image, estimated 1:30 mins reading time)
