Not much art on the wall. My recessed bookcase is kind of a work of art.
Anything with a sniper rifle.
I'd hate to face the Grunts.
I would like to win now. Thanks.
Golly gee, I sure would like all that hard drive space for that there xbox o' mine.
Can I just return all my songs for 99 cents a piece? I don't want DRM'd 128kbs tunes anymore.
Honestly, I'll use it with my PC. It's always next gen. A new stick of RAM, a new video card and you're matching the current specs of the "next-gen" stuff.

Though I will pick up a Wii when it comes out with Version 2.0, just like the DS Lite. It'll be worth the wait.
I guess when I first read the specs on this I was fairly impressed. It's not much bigger than Apple's newly released Shuffle and it stores 2GB as opposed to the Shuffle's 1GB and this also has a screen. Something Apple keeps telling us we don't need on the Shuffle. So to recap: It looks cool (which is objective), it's tiny, the capacity is fairly decent for it's size, it plays 2 more formats than Apple's devices, and it has a screen.

(This is where someone counters my points with iTunes software being the key factor for the Shuffle, and then I counter with who cares.)
I'm just playing defense here...
The price difference here is portibility and new technology. If these things do catch on then they will be easier to transport (mail/carry/kick) and dispose of than a hard drive.

Also you know it's Sony and it's proprietary so it'll be expensive. See Memory Stick (in all of it's infinite formats)
All that money spent on this car and no wheel locks were purchased or thrown in? Lame.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a 12- or 13-inch ultraportable that can also play modern games at a reasonable level, for less than $1,000. I know the brainiacs out there can help me out. Love the site, thanks!"
