...Christmas, Dell will launch a line of flat-screen TVs, an MP3 player and a downloadable music service, all to be sold exclusively online, as it does with computers...
Pleased with its performance in still cameras and MP3 players, Panasonic is taking its SD memory card to the brave, relatively new world of digital video. The SVAV100 ($999.95) is the first DVD-quality camcorder to rely solely on flash memory to store footage. The decision allowed Panasonic to drop the bulkier moving parts required to write to DVD or MiniDV cassettes. The result: a full-featured camcorder with a 10x optical zoom and a 2.5in. LCD monitor that really will fit into a pocket of your jeans. Unfortunately, also shrinking is the amount of footage you can store...

The Archos ($1,000) can record straight from TV or hi-fi, so you don't have to waste time compressing audio and video files on your computer. And when you land, you can hook it up to your...
Although this glitch generated no small annoyance, I decided to try my luck again. This time, the download was successful, and I was soon getting my gangsta on with Fifty. But not on my MP3 player, because the files would play only on a few select brands of portable players. Tough luck, Philips. Add to this the fact that the number of burns per song is generally limited to about three, whereas one can burn bootlegged MP3s endlessly, and the option of downloading legally becomes even less tempting...
