Good Points

Picture quality/Ease of use


Bad Points

Not really a 'Bad Point'but higher speaker volume level would sometimes be useful.


General Comments

I purchased this from Argos for £299.- (during their special 100 quid off deal)
I am absolutely delighted with it and use it on my boring train journey into work.
The screensize (7 inch widescreen) and viewing angle are good enough for 2 people to watch sitting next to each other. Its worth buying a headphone splitter plug for a couple of quid which enables you to plug 2 pairs of ear/headphones in at the same time - perfect for the train.
The picture quality is superb and through headphones the sound is excellent too - a little more volume when using the internal speakers would be nice but overall the level is adequate.
Its great for showing off your digital pictures too.
If I want to read on the train - I can use it as a normal MP3 player and listen to music while I read(it even shows a picture of the album cover and track info too.)
The 40 Gig hard drive holds over 100 hours of video which I find is plenty.
If you take it on holiday with - you can plug it into your hotel/apartment TV and watch your stuff on a larger scrren.
You can plug digital cameras/card readers into it which is ideal for transferring your photos when away from home and freeing up your cameras memory card so you don't have to buy more.
It will plug into the back of your Sky, Digibox or DVD player so you can record stuff to take away with you.
As you can tell - I am quite sold on this item - Brilliant piece of kit - highly recommended!
