Comments about Digital Foci Picture Porter Elite 40GB Stand-Alone Data Storage Unit & Media Player:
When I first purchased the unit I had a limited amount of media cards and this allowed me to shoot as much as I wanted without running out of space. I now use it to backup my CF cards since I have encountered problems with cards. The Battery lasted through several transfers and I had no problems with the operating system.
The radio was unusable but that wasn't what I bout it for.
The screen resolution was not as good as I'd hoped. It still displayed images beautifully.
