Amazon.com Product Description

The iFlip may look like a mini laptop, but underneath the lid sits a whole new world of video possibilities. Open the iFlip's cover and you'll see a universal dock on the bottom that holds and charges select iPods, along with an 8.4-inch widescreen LCD display for video playback. The screen is ideal for watching stored iPod movies on planes or entertaining the kids on long car trips, plus it offers an easy way to share your favorite digital photos with friends without hooking up to a full-size TV. Add in an intuitive onscreen menu system and a host of connectivity options and you have the perfect portable video player for almost all on-the-go applications.

The video screen is crisp and versatile, with such features as a selectable aspect ratio (16:9 or 4:3), a 480 x 234 native resolution in RGB mode, a 300 cd/m2 brightness rating, and a 350:1 contrast ratio. In addition, the 75-degree horizontal viewing angle and 70- degree vertical viewing angle lets fellow passengers see the screen without straining their necks. And don't worry about the iFlip running out of juice on the first leg of your cross-country trip, as the integrated rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers roughly five hours of video playback per charge. To renew the battery, simply plug in the AC adapter and you'll recharge both the iFlip and iPod simultaneously.

Finally, the iFlip isn't restricted to iPod use only, as it connects to other video devices via the S-video output and line-in jacks. Other details include dual headphone jacks for people who travel in pairs and adjustable brightness, color, hue, and contrast controls. The iFlip--which is compatible with the iPod nano (1G and 2G), iPod video (5G), iPod photo (regular and U2 model), iPod 4G with click wheel (regular and U2 model), and iPod mini--measures 8.7 by 1.8 by 6.7 inches (W x H x D) when closed and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

4 out of 5 stars Great product but depends on the price.......2007-11-15

I decided to try this out as the price dropped substantially ($200 to $79) and I really like watching movies/TV shows on my video ipod when traveling. The challenge has always been the battery life as the Ipod screen tends to kill the battery very fast.

Since I had a $50 Amazon certificate, I said what the heck. Many of the opinions prior such as it can be scratched easily, it's a bit difficult to open at first, and that stuff gets stuck in the speaker holes are all valid, ironically so as I thought those people were just very anal. Well, they are true but don't distract from the positives:

1. It lasts forever as you don't use the Ipod screen and I've read that this unit can go for over 8 hours of video. I've tried five at the most and it still was going.
2. It's a great travel companion as now I have portable speakers w/ my Ipod as well.
3. The quality of the video is as good as my old portable DVD player so I'm pretty happy with it.

Overall, I think $100 is a fair price and knowing what I know would purchase it again. Lastly, Amazon is the bomb...

4 out of 5 stars Great Product but NOT with the new iPod Classic.......2007-10-10

I have loved my memorex iflip and have happily used it for over a year with my 5th generation 80GB. It has great sound, pretty good picture, consistent quality video, and a great battery life. I've been very happy with it and use it daily.

However, I just bought the new iPod classic 160GB. And found, when you dock the new iPod Classic, the iflip gets an error message (saying that TV out is selected, connect a video device). The problem is, that the iPod is connected to a video device (THE IFLIP) This is apparently a pretty common problem because Apple has kindly put a notice about the error message on their site, but indicates the fix is to connect a 30 pin AV connector to the ipod. Something that isn't possible with the Memorex because the built in dock IS the connection. So, now I have a great new ipod, and a great old iflip and a bunch of itunes videos I can't watch.

I'm afraid to buy another ipod video becuase of concerns over getting the same error message. And, I hate to get rid of a really great video player.

3 out of 5 stars Good Video but poor design.......2007-10-07

The video is good, battery life is excellent, sound is satisfactory. But the exterior design of the unit is poor.Within few days dust gets deposited in the left and right part of the ipod docking station which is mesh like thing (cannot be seen in the picture) covering audio speakers and its very difficult to clean it. The unit is thick and heavy.

1 out of 5 stars Worst product ever made!!!.......2007-06-20

The quality of the image es bad, too pixelate, and after the 5th use the cradle breack apart and.... the notice....!!! this product only has 90 days of warranty!!!!... for the same price I will get the philips DCP850, and also I can view DVD movies on it.

2 out of 5 stars I should be better.......2007-05-25

I bought it with the hopes that my vast collection of videos on my 80Gig iPod would now be viewable on an 8.4" screen. No dice. This device has some deep set problem with widescreen content. All of my WS videos appear stretched at the 16:9 setting and though they look normal at the 4:3 setting, I have to view them with padding bars on both the top and sides?!? Memorex needs to go back to the drawing board here. It only has svideo out instead of composite out. There is a also a problem where I can hear humming during the low volume times of a video. No replaceable battery rounds out the list. I don't plan on keeping it. Maybe version 2...

5 out of 5 stars Phenomenal, to say the least..........2006-12-19

I started out looking at $500 A/V receivers, and gradually worked my way up to the Denon AVR-4806. Sometimes I think I must have been crazy, but more often I glad I bought this unit. What do you get for 3 grand? Needless to say, you get great sound, but you get a lot more.

It is THX Ultra2 certified and will handle up to 10 speakers. So no longer do you have to live with a mere 2 channels of surround sound. It actually gives meaning to the word surround. It comes with a microphone (on a 20' cord) used to set the system up you plug it in and place the mike in various listening positions, and it determines all the distances and sound levels for each speaker automatically. Very cool!

It has 3 HDMI inputs, so you can plug in your DVD player, Tivo Series 3, and Playstation 3 using HDMI and output them all via HDMI to your TV. In the present technology world this is the best way to connect things digitally. If your equipment doesn't have HDMI outputs, it will also accept component, analog and optical output and upconvert them flawlessly.

The manual is about 150 pages, and not terribly easy to understand. When I bought it, it was offered by Crutchfield, and from Etronics (for several hundred dollars less). I paid the premium that Crutchfield charged, and I'm glad I did. With all the possible settings and confusion, I've already taken advantage of their lifetime tech support to get things working.

The AVR-4806 is now discontinued, and is replaced by the AVR-4806CI. I understand the CI stands for `custom installation'. What the exact differences between the two are, I don't know, but for the additional $1,000, I doubt they're worth it.

If you want an audiophile quality receiver that is able to upscale all your inputs to 1080p, and can afford the relatively steep price tag (although half the price of the next level up), you won't be disappointed in this unit.

Although no longer listed on Amazon as a vendor, Crutchfield still has a few left for $2,999 (the AVR-4806CI is $3,999 from them).

Update 01/10/2007 - I must apologize for this review. After trying to hook up a 1080p device I learned that this unit does NOT switch 1080p. In fact that is the main difference between the AVR-4806 and the AVR-4806CI. The unit is now at Denon being upgraded to a CI. The AVR-4806 is discontinued, but still available from a few vendors (no longer at Crutchfield). I would not recommend buying from somewhere that doesn't offer robust tech support as it is a very complex piece of electronics.

Again, my apologies to anyone who may have been mislead by my erroneous information.
