Sansa TakeTV Video Player
Sansa’s TakeTV Video Player is the easiest way to watch downloaded PC movies on your television set. SanDisk expands on their core product of flash drives with this innovative new product. USB flash drives move data from PC to PC. The Sansa TakeTV moves digital video from PC to TV.
Daniel Schreiber, senior vice president and general manger for SanDisk’s audio/visual unit describes the Sansa Take TV in this fashion. “Sansa TakeTV is the most easy-to-use, straightforward solution for watching downloaded personal video content and other shows in the comfort of the living room. No confusing wireless network setup, no wires running across the living room and no cumbersome burning of DVDs. Just use the Sansa TakeTV device to more your favorite video content over to TV and enjoy it on the big screen with family and friends.”
SanDisk’s Sansa TakeTV Video Player is as easy to use as a flash drive. Users simply drag their desired video content into the TakeTV player. Place the TakeTV into its TV cradle. This cradle plugs into the standard A/V sockets of most existing television sets. Users are then shown an easy to follow on screen guide. They can select their downloaded content with the included TakeTV remote control.
The Sansa TakeTV Video Player will work with new and legacy TV systems via standard AV composite inputs or S-Video. TakeTV supports a wide range of video formats. These formats include DivX, XVID and MPEG-4. TakeTV is also certified for use in a Home Theater. It connects via a USB port to any PC running either Windows Vista or XP. TakeTV also can connect with systems running the latest versions of Mac or UNIX.
Sansa TakeTV is a flash-based video player. It is available in two storage sizes. The 4 GB version holds approximately five hours of video. The larger 8 GB version holds up to 10 hours of video. The 4 GB TakeTV costs $99.99 and the 8GB version cost $149.99.
Sansa TakeTV is a device whose time has come. SanDisk is to be applauded for making watching video from your PC on your TV “drag and drop” easy.
