The Samsung YP-T8X 512MB Portable Media Player is not just an iPod MP3 player ripoff. It plays videos, has an FM tuner, holds images, is a voice recorder, and can also be used for data storage. Although the half-gigabyte might seem like something to sneeze at, many users have reported being able to hold feature length movies as long as Harry Potter and still have room left for music. I wouldn’t recommend downloading any of the Lord of the Rings movies, however; I don’t think any personal video device has enough storage to hold that twenty-hour snoozefest. Oh wait, it only SEEMS like twenty hours. I keep forgetting.

I got my Samsung YP-T8X 512MB Portable Media Player Overstock.com for just over a hundred dollars. (I used part of my Associated Content clout index bonus; just another reason for potential readers to consider submitting to Associated Content. Much to my surprise, I got it on Monday after ordering it on Friday. I was downloading songs and videos within minutes. The Samsung YP-T8X 512MB Portable Media Player comes with a CD that contains a Media Studio and a Multimedia Studio that you hook up to a USB port. Converting a video so that it can be saved and used on the Samsung video player is incredibly easy. Just like downloading music, it’s nothing more than click and drop. I’ve uploaded MPG and AVI files so far. Ah, I tells ya, nothing beats waiting in line while watching an episode of The Simpsons!

What better way to pass the time while waiting in line than watching an episode of your favorite TV show or even an entire movie?
