I got my 2.8" Touch LCD MP4 Player with an 1.3MP Digital Camera, Games, Loudspeaker and a 2GB built in memory yesterday. You know that I usually splurge all my money on new gadgets from DX. This is because they ship world wide for free and their prices are among the cheapest you'll ever find. Here's a small review of my latest acquisition:

Pros:
* Plays Divx, Xvid, 3GP and MP4 encoded videos
* Plays MP3 and AAC
* 2.8" touch screen
* Very responsive Touch Screen
* UI very iPhone like
*Good screen clarity
* Camera
* Comes with 2GB in built memory
* Uses Mini SD card and is expandable to 2GB
* TV out function
* Games
* Reads Ebooks[txt format]
* Has Auto Scroll for ebooks
* Amazing price
* Displays album art

Cons:
* Build can be improved
* TV out cable not supplied
* SDHC not supported
* No FM
* US type plug for power supply
* Earphones are made from crappily molded plastic. Hurts the ear..

Things to Remember:

=>Format the Memory card using the player before you use the card. Certain folders that are needed for proper functioning of the player are created.

=>To transfer data into the PMP
* Switch the player off
* Plug in the computer
* Switch the player on
* The PMP will then enter the USB mode.
* You can see two removable drives created:
1. The onboard memory.
2. The removable mini SD memory.

=> There's a stylus in the left upper side receptacle.

=> The mini SD card goes in label down

=> Music files go only in music, Ebook files in Ebooks and so on..

=> All the music files must be placed directly in the music folder.

=> If the Music/Video folders have any subfolders, the player just hangs.
