Mustek PVR-A1

"Mustek has snuck into the Portable Media Player (PMP) with the Mustek PVR-A1 Personal Media Center. The funny thing is we learned about its availability through The Home Shopping Network. Much like the Archos AV400 which is initially being sold exclusively through QVC in the UK, the PRV-A1 is only available in the U.S. through HSN.com ($219.90 -- on sale 7/4 for $179.90). In fact, the U.S. and Global versions of the Mustek company site don't even list the product in its handheld line up (as of July). To learn more we had to dig around the English version Taiwanese site to find PVR-A1 product page."
It looks like a really nice unit with a 2.5" color screen, playback of MP3 & WAV music files, JPEG and MPEG-4 video compatibility, plus PictBridge support. In addition, the PVR-A1 comes with a built-in microphone for quick voice memos and a mini speaker for A/V playback. Finally, it is expandable through a built in SD slot. It is apparently on sale for under $180.
