Western Digital Introduce the WD TV Mini
Recently announced by leading Hard Drive manufacturers Western Digital, the Western Digital WD TV Mini Media Player is set to take various formats of multimedia even further into your life.
As mentioned in the below press release, it is capable of 1080i High Definition playback via it’s component video outputs or standard definition via it’s composite outputs. This is a step down from the original 1080p WD TV Media Player, and considering they are similarly priced, We’re not too sure why anyone would choose this player over its’ predecesor. Like its’ predecesor, the WD TV Mini does not have any onboard storage space. Rather, you need to plug in an external USB Device to access any content. This player is now available from some outlets in the US, but as yet we have heard no word on its’ Australian release.
Portable Media Players – What are my choices?
Portable media players (PMP) or personal media players, are small devices that allow you to access a variety of multimedia whilst on the move. The earliest forms of PMPs were MP3 players, allowing you to listen to your music wherever you are, all through one small, pocket-sized machine. This basic form of PMP led to the production of the Apple iPod, iRiver and other similar devices from companies like Samsung, Sony and LG.
