Any good? Is it really useful? Can I put any video on it? Anyone here have one? What's the deal? Too many questions?

The best I can say is the commercial looked sweet, and it's getting some really good reviews, but the guys here are going to call you a trend whore :)

Are you getting it to watch video on the little screen or do you hope to output that video to another source?

heard that it only supports quick time format.

if you wanna convert stuff to quicktime, you need to get quicktime pro and pay for it :(

lies

i heard from a friend of an aunt who bought their nephews ex-girlfriends twice removed grandpa one that the screen was to small to really bother.

other than that apparently he can play music on it. that's pretty cool i guess.

I'm just not sure if it's worth keeping or if I should wait until the week before Christmas and try and sell it on Ebay. If I can load any kind of video on it, it's a keeper, if it's only something that's going to cost me money, fuck the thing.

Don't know about that, but I'm quite sure that some fucking idiot on eBay will pay you a mint for it just to shut their sniveling kid up. :olo:

Anyone that dumps a chunk of cash to watch video on a 2 inch screen is asking to have a nukyooler weapon detonate directly above their head.

Get a PSP, it has a biger than 1 inch by 1 inch screen, and it is widescreen.

Actually nookyouler weapons work best when detonated several metres above the ground.

So these people should stand in towers.

I have no real need for portable music so in reality only the video part interests me.

And what kind of videos would you put on it? What kind can you put on it?
