Portable media players are not hard to find after the introduction of the PSP by Sony. PQI has their own version media player for those who are on-the-go and still want the features of a non-portable system. This unit named the mPack can record shows directly from your TV. The main negative is that you can't schedule your recordings to when your shows are playing. The base unit has a 40GB hard drive and the top shelf one boasts an 80GB hard drive. The whole unit weights about the same as other media players like the Archos. It has a bright colorful screen with included earpieces and remote. There is a built-in kickstand for desk use and a FM tuner for radio. Consumer Prices vary based on which model you choose. Always compare specs and pricing before making purchases.
