Here's what I have been thinking. We have MP3 players with a gig of flash storage available for $190. And digital cameras with screens, that can play video files they record for $150.

Why not combine some of this technology, into something like an MP3 player, but with a screen and plays videos?

My prototype is:

Of course, it is merely a simple paint drawing and doesn't have buttons, but yeah. I want one.

287915 2004-11-04 11:02:00 How much do they go for? Wholesale and retail prices that is.

And where are they sold?

Because I know at least 10 people who would buy one if I could sell them.

Cheers

287917 2004-11-04 18:13:00 A few months ago I was looking for MP3 players that supported the Ogg Vorbis format, and I did find, as a top end model, a portable video player. I can't remember what company made them though... agent (30)

Minus the invention part :D

287919 2004-11-04 19:27:00 About 20 years ago I dreamed up the idea that in the future all music would come on little solid chips, and moving parts in a stereo would be obsolete. I mentioned this to my brother a few years ago when mp3's and memory chips became a reality. But he blew my bubble when he said the technology predated my idea by about 20 years! LOL Greg S (201)
