I do agree with you regarding video quality on the PSP. I have encoded over 20GB worth of AVC movies for my PSP and the quality is just superb for its purpose; and that is just in 368x204 size. Hopefully, Sony will allow us to encode AVC movies in PSP's native screen resolution: 480 x 272. Sony had the HMP-A1 for a while now; released around the same time as the VAIO Pocket. This device supports Mp3 and WAV playback and of course plays Video and serve as a Photo Viewer as well. Click the link for Stan's thorough pictorial-review. As for future release of a color DAP from Sony... I am sure it's coming - just a matter of time as they sort thru the current issue with CONNECT Player.
