Howdy people.

I need a guiding light for these brand new tools, at least for me.
I’m looking for a personal media centre (actually I don’t even know the exact name for them ...), i.e. one of those portable HD (average 30 Gb) with LCD who can play and record several formats such as mp3, mp4, wav, wmv, wma, etc. by connecting a camera or TV with A/V jack input.
I’ve seen that the setting for mp4 PAL recording is mainly 320x240, but it’s too low quality because I’d need then to edit the recording as dvd.
Does anyone can suggest me the best tool in terms of performance/price?

Thanks
