If you're one of the many folks who enjoys watching movies and video on your PSP's bright and beautiful screen, SanDisk has just announced a new device that might just make it easier than ever to get the content you crave onto your handheld."SanDisk has announced the launch of the V-Mate Video Memory Card Recorder, a device that will allow you to record television directly to a memory card without the need of a PC. The new device, which is 12.95cm x 6.6cm x 2.03cm in size, will allow you to playback movies and TV on your mobile phone, Sony PSP, notebook and other playback devices." It can use the Memory Stick Pro Duo memory format right out of the box.
As an alternative to the Tivo-to-go, this is a good alternative for PSP users. As a replacement for the VCR, it is even better. The V-mate also comes with a remote and the ability to schedule programs to record anytime.
Plus, it's going to make using my new PSP car mount a lot more fun! No word yet on pricing.

At 640x480 resolution, this also looks like the perfect device for capturing those old VHS tapes to a digital format. Any thoughts on how it will deal with Macrovision?
