RCA Lyra Video Device Released
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "HARDWARE" @ 01:00 PM
"RCA has announced a new Lyra audio/video personal media player that allows recording of TV directly onto the unit for $449. The RCA LYRA Audio/Video Jukebox lets TV junkies record their favorite programs directly onto a pocket-sized device - without the need to use a PC. The 20 GB RCA RD2780 is a "virtual VCR" in your pocket, featuring a 3.5" screen that easily connects to a television set via an analog composite video output and can record up to 50 hours of video content directly from an analog video source. The RD2780 also plays back digital audio files and JPEG photos."
Earlier, it was the swarm of portable MP3/audio players, now it is the more versatile portable personal audio/video/media players. But since I am a big fan of convergence of technologies to result in an all-in-one kind of player (whether camera, pocketPC, MP3 player or video player), I don't mind news about PVPs. The Lyra Video device costs about $450 and has a 20GB drive, but the device is small and light. This article is a good write up on the many functions of the RCA Lyra.
