Hey guys, I was just going my weekly browse through ebay and this video ipod clone caught my eye.

It seems interesting, it has a big 2.4" Screen, better firmware, same old features that include - picture viewer, radio, games but also includes a digital camera and a camcorder built into it along with an external speaker. Some versions also have TV output capability.

I just wanted to hear from people who own this player what they think of it and does the TV output capability work well? Just wondering guys. Thanks!

I dont know of the TV out feature, friend has just returned from states with one, rock solid playback and seems fine, but I can find no tv out, its identical to the photographs and the menue shots though.

emm, I saw his tonight and was quite happy with the image quality and size, brigtness and saturation seemed to be ok too.

If I thought I needed to slag it off I would, its not mine! but I cant say its bad on lcd, its as good as say a screen on an xda/p800/p900 phone etc.

I cant comment on its audio quality, only heard it on the internal speaker, which was quite tinny, not very hifi at all.

(edit)

Oh yeah the camera is poor in dark environments, IE indoors, and LED 'flash' is a pitiful weak little led, nothing like on say a sony camera phone, more like the power led on a vcr, only white, and useless for anything over 30cm away, yes 30 cm not 300cm....

For size comparisons have a look here
