Another Media Center, the Cintre MediaStore, Under $150 In the spirit of showcasing real-life gadgets instead of gadget announcements, here's another good-looking portable media center, the Cintre MediaStore PMPEG4. The 30GB version is under $150 shipped right now, it's already starting to get pretty cheap for these devices.For those that don't see the point, it is essentially an external 2.5 inch USB drive enclosure that also incluldes some kind of media player onboard, and A/V outputs for audio or video files on the drive. As with the AivX, this one looks to have a nice GUI, and is also USB powered. An 80GB version would make a great companion for video at home and in the car. It includes S-Video and component outputs, and a USB2.0 input and power port.  Here is a picture of the GUI, nothing extravagant, but I'm a little jealous when I think back on how much work I put in on my Xbox Media Center for essentially the same functionality.It supports MPEG 1, 2, 4 (MPG, MPEG, AVI, M2V, DAT, VOB, etc.) DivX, XviD Video (except GMX, Qpel option applied format), MP3, OGG Vorbis, WMA Music, and .JPG Photos. Whew.
