(What WAS the NSA looking at?) Products: * A Feast of flash players... watch out iPod nano! * mobiBLU B153 (2GB) Amazing battery life (153 hours???), but the interface and bass could use help * SanDisk Sansa e260 It's hard to tell if the Sansa or the * iRiver clix is the best iPod nano alternative out there. Patrick's vote is for the clix! * mobiBLU's DAH-1500i Cube doesn't have the battery life of the 153, but we like the audio better. Viewer Questions: * Dodging sketchy stock spam... what's up with those PDF attachments. * Urge rocks: but what happens to the tunes I download during the free 14 day trial? Um, you loose access to them... it's a DRM thing. * Windows Vista and the new MacBooks: Will it run? What about Aero/Glass? * H.263 vs. H.264 * Choosing LCD panels for use in bright sunshine.

In the mean time, stick with a name brand upscaling DVD player (Panasonic, Samsung and Sony come to mind). * BTW, the Oppo OPDV971H has caught his eye and he's looking at getting it into the lab ASAP.
