Archos, a leading maker of portable media players, has released their
404 player with an integrated camcorder. The seven ounce player has a
30GB hard drive and a 3.5-inch LCD screen that can display 320 by 240
pixels. A lithium-ion battery powers the player and Archos claims it
can give up to eight hours of music playback or two and a half hours
of video play.....

Better still get - for about the same price - a 504 and have 80GB storage
plus a 520 line res bullet cam

The small monitor has to be seen to be appreciated - makes just about all
other MP4's look like a poor joke! Furthermore you can record in near DVD
quality and play back at full res through a normal TV!

I bought two - one for special video recording tasks where HD cam is too
big or cumbersome and the other is used mostly as a photostore when shooting
35mm digital and all my 8GB CF cards are full and I'm in the middle of
nowhere. (I'm not buying any more 8GB CF cards until the price drops
significantly - the first two cost me more then the Archos with its 80GB)

I think a lot of folks could find some seriously good uses for devices like
this!
