ZVUE! ZVR-001 Full Color Personal Video Player
|
This power mini has all the features of the big boys without the site or price. The ZVUE!, a personal video player, can play almost anything with high quality you would expect from a high priced TV. The screen is only a 2.5” screen but it puts out the video. It plays bright vibrant colors playing up to 15fps. It also has Motorola Dragonball™ i.MXL 200MHz processor which can process full-motion video, plus MP3 audio and JPEG photos. With USB 1.1 connector and a SD/MMC card slot there are many ways to connect to your data. Power is not an issue with this model either. It can play 8 hours of video on 4 AA batteries. Downloads on the ZVUE! site or put in your own media, the ZVUE! personal video player is a must have.
Consumer Price: $99
