TViX mini portable multimedia jukebox
If you can do without packing a pile of films and CDs for your holidays, the incredibly small TViX mini multimedia jukebox might save you the hassle.
It’s very small – 82.0 x 127.5 x 20.0mm and weighing 180g and is available with a hard drive from 40GB to 120GB. So plenty of storage space. As a video jukebox, it supports most video formats including MPEG-1, MPEG-2 (AVI, VOB) and MPEG-4 (AVI, DivX, XviD). It performs just like a DVD player – load up your titles and the TViX mini even keeps all the chapters, subtitles, menus and special features included on a disc. It can also be used as a very large photo album and a music server – it supports a variety of formats, including MP3, Ogg Vobis or WMA, which can sorted into playlists for easy searching. To connect to your auudio/visual device of choice, there’s a "dongle" with muliple connections that should cover just about any external device you can think of.
Or you can use it to simple store files. It features USB 2.0 OTG (On-The-Go) technology, so you can connect the TViX mini and a USB device without the aid of a PC. The TYViX mimi is available now, priced from £135 for the 40GB version.
