JVC's Publio TX-700 handheld helps advertise, doubles as PMP

Here's a curious one. Straight out of JVC's Japanese laboratory comes the Publio TX-700, which was seemingly created to be used in stores to play back video files and promotional stills depending on what type of sale was ongoing. Still, we see a fair bit more potential in this 7-inch gizmo. It does look a tad bulky -- we'll give you that -- but it manages to feature MPEG1/2, MP3, JPEG and BMP format support, an SD expansion slot, built-in stereo speakers, USB 2.0 connectivity and a programmable on / off setting. Unfortunately, we're left wondering what the screen resolution, price and availability dates are, but feel free to ask the owner of the next retail establishment you find one in where he / she managed to procure it from.

Is it my cappy English or this doesn't make any sense at all: feel free to ask the owner of the next retail establishment you find one in where he / she managed to procure it from.

no,I think the English is correct.its just saying if you see one of these in a store male sure you ask them were they got it.
