TA 454 Tiny Digital Video Player

I recently purchased a Sony Mylo to see if my earlier prediction was true: the Mylo would be a dismal failure. While the jury is still out, the one good thing about the Mylo is the ability to play video on a small but fairly bright and colorful screen, at a file size that allows me to cram a boatload of movies and clips without losing much storage space.
Ah, had I only seen the TA 454. For $79.95, I can store 256MB of video or pics via the built-in internal storage, and add additional SD/MMC memory, all in a package that is about a pocket- sized as you can get. Connect the device to you PC via a USB cable and you are good to go without an additional charger to haul around.
We Say: A 1.5″ TFT LCD screen is not exactly roomy, but the device supports: SMV, MP3, WMA, JPG, eBook formats. Not sure you can read an eBook at that size, but it’s a nice touch. But where is the MP4 support?
