The Pocket Media Assistant 430 is an uber-PDA. Includes 30 GB hard drive, and based on Linux. It can do MPEG4 and Mp3 recording from analog as well as ripping Mp3, plays Mp3, WAV and WMA, allows viewing of JPG, BMP, PNG and GIF, has wireless 802.11b and wired USB Ethernet, has all the requisite PDA functions (calendar, addresses, notes, hotsync with Windows PC) and can view Microsoft Office documents. All this and it will run Windows Media Player as well as Linux apps. The cradle comes with all the connectors for home media, theater, audio, etc. Unfortunately, this is very much a Linux machine, and as such, is subject to the strange quirks and "hands-on" approach to said OS. Driver downloads and updates are necessary, some files won't play without conversion to another variant first, and the interface hasn't been designed by a professional industrial design team like Frog. With a little tinkering, this is a jack of all-things-digital and a great example of converging technology.
