Conceptronic Media Players download video, audio, stills onto portable drive

We've seen
a few devices that'll let you download media files
from your PC and play them on any TV. Many suffer from limited format support or storage capacity, but it looks
like the Conceptronic Media Player has most of those issues licked. The player, which comes with either a 2.5-inch
drive (CMED2PLAY) in capacities of up to 80GB or a 3.5-inch version (CMED3PLAY) that goes up to 250GB, can support
XViD, MPEG-1/2/4, JPEG, MP3, and AVI, along with ISO images, VOB files and CD and VCD files (they don't list DivX
support, though it may be included under AVI). Files can be transferred via USB 2.0, and output options include
S-Video and composite. No networking capabilities are included, but if you're looking to download those video
files and watch them in, say, a hotel room, it could be just the thing.
