For those of you who dont have budget for a media center pc, here's some good news. iOmega has launched the new Iomega ScreenPlay Multimedia Drive, a portable hard drive with built-in multimedia playback capability that makes it a digital media jukebox for photos, songs and video files that can be used with virtually any television or audio-video system in the world. Like a Media Center PC, the 200 and 300GB pair play videos, photos and music. Format support is respectable, - on the movie front, you can play MP1, 2 and 4 including your DivX flicks and the raw VOB files created when you rip a DVD to a computer's hard drive. For music you get MP3, WMA, WAV and Ogg playback, though no AAC. The other stuff you'd expect includes a remote, FireWire and USB, plus S-Video for plugging into your tv. Both are on sale now with the 200GB available £220 and the 300GB selling at £240. Can it also record tv shows? No, its just a player.
