While there's not a whole lot of information about the devices that you haven't already heard, but if you're itching to pick either one up you can pre-order can get it shipped as soon as they hit our shores. If you purchase the Samsung instead of the Creative, you can save a whole eleven cents!

Arriving even earlier than we had originally predicted, the first DVD recorder that will support the playback and recording of Windows Media 9 video files is here. Using Windows Media 9 means that over six hours of DVD quality video can be squeezed onto one disc, and the DiVA 489, which is being built by Malata/Wanlida (yeah, we'd never heard of them either) but will be sold under the Polaroid brand name in the US, can also play Windows Media content that's streamed or downloaded over the Internet.

Two S-Media Portable Video Players:
JoyToGo and Black Diamond


Two S-Media Portable Video Players:
JoyToGo and Black Diamond
06/08/2004 07:31 AM

smedia_joytogo_bd.jpg imageDAPReview has shots of a couple of small, hard drive-based video players, both with planned release dates around September. The first is the JoyToGo (pictured left, and which I could have sworn we'd seen before, but Google says otherwise), built around either a 20 or 30GB 1.8" hard drive, with a 480 x 234 2.5" LCD screen, as well as built-in speakers and SD slot. It will also allow direct recording of video in MPEG-4 at rates of 640x480 at 25fps -- not bad, consider that's larger than its own screen.

And even though it's only a mock-up at the moment, I can't help but be excited by the 'Black Diamond' player, built around a tiny 1" hard drive with an as-yet-unspecified capacity. It only has a 294 x 228 resolution (with the same 2.5" screen size as the JoyToGo), and no speakers or anything like that, but if they could bump the resolution of the Black Diamond up to 480 x 234, I would be happy -- honored, even -- to carry around the little player in my pocket.

Both players are from S-Media, the makers of the moderately successful CoCoPod hard disk player.
