Review of NHJapan's MPM-201 personal video player

By Peter Rojas

At this point your eyes might be glazing over at the mention of yet another personal video player, but Portable Media World got their hands on NHJapan's new MPM-201, which sports the customary 3.5-inch LCD screen (where are the widescreens?), a 30GB hard drive, both SD and CompactFlash expansion card slots, and a dock with AV input/output,
S-video out and a TV tuner (so it can double as a regular portable TV), and can play MP3, MPEG, AVI, and DivX 4/5, all of which are pretty standard specs at this point. Apart from the TV tuner dock, this one sounds about like all of the other personal video players out there, though the reviewer wasn't particularly impress with the quality of its screen,
which sorta probably the most important part of one of these things.
