For anyone considering buying this item, you should first consider how much you would use it. I travel alot, am constantly on long trips and have a TON of media. Those reasons prompted me to buy it - but for the average media savvy person, I'd say stick with a 1gb memory stick. The need for a 40gb drive such as this one, only arises if you seriously need to carry that much with you.
First off, I love this thing. The actual drive itself is very solid, something you can hold firmly, with a so-so weight. It's definitely a travel-ready type of item. I have brought it along with me on about 9 trips already, and it's been flawless throughout.
The hard drive on it is split into two partitions - which helps navigation. Navigation. A very testy subject due to the fact that the screen is a weeeee bit small. The buttons are manageable, and a little squinting is required - but after awhile, you'll get used to it and its not so bad.
The hard drive's screen means that it will truncate long file names - thus it's good to name your folders with short names - like, ROMS - ANIME, etc. Transfer rates aren't too bad - it takes me a few minutes to transfer a movie.
All in all, I'm very impressed - I absolutely adore it, but there are a lot of factors that you should consider before buying it.
