Man, Microsoft is stupid.

"[Pyxis] is a rumored iPod nano competitor, with similar size and functions, but the addition of video support."

So, let me get this straight, assuming I'm willing to waste disk space and power consumption on video, why would I want to watch a video on a screen that tiny.

I suppose it kind of points to how they expect Americans to use a product now. I mean, the "WALKMAN" made sense, because that's what people did. They'd use it while walking/exercising. I guess now these portable devices are just for losers riding the bus/subway and people who try to avoid human contact at all times.

PS. I own a nano because I wanted to listen to music on my bicycle rides, though I suppose I *COULD* watch tiny videos on it while riding too.
