Samsung 2.5'' Portable DVD Player -- $21.95

[scrivener]

Just saw this at The Bargainist (http://www.bargainist.com/deals/2007/07/samsung-dvdl25-portable-dvd-player-22/) and thought someone here might be interested.

Amazon.com says it lists at $149.99 but has it now at $21.95 until it runs out. I find it a very tempting offer, but even at that low a price, I know it's something I don't need. Check it out here (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-DVD-L25-Portable-Player-Screen/dp/B0009A2L80/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-8182493-8034209?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1184624361&sr=8-1).

well it only plays 3.5" dvds and cds so it's usefulness is limited to what you can burn or perhaps those direct to disk camcorders.

If you can burn it you can probably watch it on most SD cell phones like my Treo with a similarly sized screen.

But at that price it sure looks intriguing...however I think I'll pass on this bargain.:)

I thought this was interestingly priced at The Bargainist, a Maxtor 150-gb external one button external hard drive for $50 (http://www.bargainist.com/deals/2007/07/maxtor-160gb-onetouch-external-hard-drive-50/)
