MediaReady Flyboy Linux PMP Review

NewsForge published a review of the Linux Portable Media player MediaReady Flyboy by Video Without Boundaries.

Quote:
" After using the Flyboy for a few weeks, I'm not impressed enough with the unit to want one permanently. The concept is good, but the execution leaves much to be desired.

There are a few major downsides to the Flyboy. It takes far too long to copy video content to the device to make it useful as a portable video player. The device is slow, and the video playback just isn't good enough to justify the high price tag. "
