tao said:it is STUPID to be used as an image viewer UNLESS you are a Sony digicam user and can plug your memory stick into it. but then it only accept the memory stick duo so I don't think you can do that. moreover, max is only 1GB now.
having said that viewing photos on it is very good due to its very high res and bright LCD.

Well, it cost $499. You probably need to buy at least a decent 512mb mem card to store some pics. That is another $150.
Total cost >$650.
Why dun u buy a cheap second hand ibook at 700-800 bucks? 20gig of storage, bigger screen, some processing abilites on the go, nice looks, etc.
Of course, PSP have hellava ( or soon to have) better games...
but then , u are looking at a image viewer rite?
rebbot said:Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone has tot of using the sony PSP as an image viewer? Was thinking of getting it due to its big screen and cheap price tag compared to the ipod photo...
n0d3 said:Both aren't really good if you want to view photos, the resolution on the iPod photo aint' really that good either. Not sure whether you can directly transfer using one of those media readers and view it straight away, for normal photos it needs to pass through iTunes for conversion IIRC. And the media readers (from Belkin etc.) takes quite long to transfer files over to the iPod, thats what stopped me from buying one in the place of an X-Drive. Why not just view it on your D70?
rebbot said:How the x-drive? The screen on the D70s too small liaoz hehehe cannot see it properly esp if there is camera shake
considering the PSP coz its cheap, has a 4.28' screen and displays up to 16.7 million colors
S11loop said:wow never know a iBOOK second cost so cheap ... does PS support it ? will get one after switch to DSLR
n0d3 said:The X-Drive doesn't have a display, but if you're looking for something with one then I guess you've to go with the PSP. Hmmm, but whether you can transfer the photos on the go is another thing. Anyway why on earth would you want to view your photos using the PSP/another storage device? Unless you're talking about showing your photos to clients like glensky, if you're just looking for somewhere to dump your photos during a holiday etc. then I guess the X-Drive is a better choice.
