I was updating one of the tech blogs I manage and I stumbled on this new product:

Very interesting since it runs Android and can actually run Android apps. It also has keyboard and mouse support.

Just read that it's a chinese brand pala. now i'm a bit skeptical since it lists Dolby TruHD support as "upon request". but can't wait for the reviews.

sir, probably depends on the hardware ... i have an Archos Tablet that plays 720p mkv files without any issues, and it is even top of the line processor (single-core only)

any one who have bought (any android  hdd media player).....please share your experience...thanks...

I'm having second thoughts with this products... if you will read the review at futeko.com regarding android..looks like it is not a better buy..

"As of 2011 we are starting to see Android based media players. These are usually ARM based and run Google's Android 2.2. Because the chip and operating system is not specifically built for playing media these players have poorer media file format support and worse playback performance than a player using a dedicated media chipset. What they do have however is a full web browser with Flash 10.1 and the ability to download Android apps. This browser may allow access to services like iPlayer."(http://www.futeko.com/navpage/media-players.php)

What do you think..
