Well, well, a card reader which is really a card recorder. SanDisk introduces their V-Mate which can record from a variety of video input signals directly to flash memory. From there, one can grab the flash memory stuff it into their PDA, cell phone or gaming console to view on the run. The biggest question we have is what kind of recording quality does this V-Mate bring to the table? We’ve seen all too many converter boxes which produce less then desirable results…but then again, that was playback on a TV not a mini LCD from a hand-held. Which brings up another question – just how many people are really taking their PDA or cell phone on the run and watching video, anyway? Sure we’ve got the frequent travelers who find themselves more in airport terminals then at the dinner table, but seriously who else is glued to their 2″ LCD for the most recent episode of “The Daily Show?”
Well – SanDisk must have their finger on the pulse. For more information hit their site, product runs from just around $129
