Choosing the right
Filed under: iPod Family, Video 
Julio Ojeda-Zapata writes about picking the right TV-to-go in a recent Pioneer Press article. It's an interesting article, because he comes at it from a Windows Media Center point of view instead of looking at the many Windows-based solutions that produce iPod- and PSP-compatible video. He compares the iPod, the Archos 604, and the Philips Portable Media Center, staying focused on the to-go aspects of each. As a portable video watching device he found the iPod to be "painful" and "cramped", a fair criticism with its tiny screen. The other two players scored higher for their larger screens and their PlaysForSure compatibility, a feature that probably would never come into my own personal scoring system. As for getting Media Center video onto the iPod, Ojeda-Zapata mentions two possible solutions: Roxio's MyTV ToGo and burning to DVD and then ripping. That's just a little too Rube Goldberg for my tastes. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
