Good Hand-Held Video Player

[kkelso]

Getting myself a Christmas gift and want to finally get a handheld video device.

I'm old so I want a decent sized screen. I like the iPod but don't want to hassle with re-encoding everything. Native DivX plaback a must. Don't really need the capability to play music or any other whiz-bang features.

Anyone care to recommend?

Thanks - KK

The Archos portable media players are nice.

Don't know about Archos but Creative's media player does Divx native, their newer players have smaller screen size though as compared to their older ones.

Here's their older 60GB Zen Vision W at BB

Mine is 30GB , no complain whatsoever.

You might find it cheaper on ebay.

Liked it a lot - thanks. Unfortunately it's Windows-only
