Haven't seen the commercial but I read up on it. Seems cool, but I think 128 MB for video is extremely small. Unless the screen is really small and low-res, there is no way you can fit an hour of video without compressing it like crazy. Looks like you can buy more memory though.

Rep Power: 3 kelp is on a distinguished road
I haven't seen the commercial, but I just looked it up on Google and found the following site:
http://vugo.com/vugo.php

It can only hold 128MB, and it says 1 hour, but it's probably compressed and with really bad graphics. It's $99, which is a really bad price, considering the price of the PSP.

They're selling it to little kids I saw it in the toys section at Walmart yesterday.

So little kids go hound their parents for this thing, and the parents buy it without even looking at what is involved.
Great marketing plan!

I'll never buy a 128MB device.. it's just beyond belief how un-worth the price it is!
