Introducing Portable Media Centers

All of your media. Here. There. Everywhere.

Portable Media Centers put all of your favorite video, music, and pictures at your fingertips wherever you are. Take digital entertainment from your PC with you on the go, including recorded TV shows, downloaded videos, home movies, music, and photos. With Windows Mobile™ software featuring an easy-to-use, familiar Windows® Media Center Edition interface, Portable Media Centers let you enjoy immediate access to all of your favorite entertainment — anytime, anywhere.  

 

 Every song you’ve ever hummed.

Take your entire Windows Media® Player music library with you, including all your favorite songs, artist and track information, playlists, ratings and even album art. The Windows Media audio formats provide unmatched quality at smaller file sizes so you can take more of your favorite music with you - up to 600 hours of audio.* That’s like non-stop music for the entire month of February, without hearing the same song twice.  

 

 Every TV show you’ve ever quoted.

Portable Media Centers will let you do more than play music. Move digitally recorded TV shows from your Windows® XP Media Center PC to watch hundreds of hours of TV on the road. Store up to 175 hours of recorded TV.* That’s lets you take every single episode of “The Simpsons,” from its 1988 premiere through the 2003 season, with you wherever you go. You can even connect to a TV or entertainment center to watch videos with friends and family.  

 

 Every movie you’ve ever loved.

Now you can take all of your favorite movies with you, wherever you go, whether they are recorded on your Media Center PC, downloaded from the Internet or created yourself using a digital video camera. It’s easy to move content from your Windows XP-based PC to your Portable Media Center—video is automatically synchronized to the device. 175 hours of video.* That’s like having the last 75 years of Best Picture Oscar Winners.  

 

 Every photo you’ve ever taken.

Do you ever notice how most of your digital pictures end up stored away on your computer and you never get around to printing them out? Now you can take all of the digital pictures stored on your PC with you to share with friends and family wherever you are. Portable Media Centers makes accessing and viewing your favorite photos and slideshows easier than ever and let you store up to 100,000 photos.* Plus you can connect to a TV to share the fun.  

*This storage capacity requires Portable Media Center with 40GB hard disk drive, with all disk drive space dedicated to either video, audio or pictures.  

Microsoft is working with leading consumer electronics manufacturers to revolutionize the way people experience personal entertainment on the go. Creative Labs, iRiver, Samsung, Sanyo and ViewSonic have all announced that they will be making Portable Media Centers.
