I would think they're called "MP3 players" and are all over the market 
right now. Someday we will look back and laugh at how much those things 
cost.

Now a MP3 portable player that could play ANY sort of QT-supported media 
AND had a decent amount of memory so that you could get at least a couple 
of hours out of it (that's 150 megs or so for MP3s) and didn't cost more 
than a top-end walkman ... get back to me if something like THAT comes 
along.
