By	D. Levy "Truth Enthusiast" (London) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the greatest thing ever invented. I have hours of mp3's and I can even watch windows media videos and mpeg movies(yes, Entire Movies. I can even fit two 1.5 hour movies). What more can you ask for? There is only one concern i have with this, The drive while in operation heats the screen up incredibly, i dont know if that is necesserily bad for the screen because mine after hours of non stop use is working fine.
