I'm looking for a portable HD Media player but am having some trouble finding what I want.

Any thoughts on a player that has the following?

250+ GB storage (disk or ss)
USB connectivity
built in wi-fi
ethernet
HDMI out
decent remote control
support of most popular video formats (AVI, MPEG-3, MKV, WMV, etc)
good reputation for software/firmware updates
not terribly large

ya, that should do it.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
SSS

I own a Nixeus Fusion HD network media player for almost a year now and it has worked well for me. It does everything you are looking for and it includes a Wifi-N Dongle... You can install an internal HDD up to 2TB or an SSD = with any of those installed it can also function as a NAS (Media Server) to stream or share files to other connected devices on your home network. They have been consistantly providing firmware updates with minor and major fixes/feature additions... it is also considered as a bit-perfect device for bitstreaming 7.1 Channel HD Audio (Dolby TrueHD and DTS-MA)....You can find this media player on AMAZON and NEW Egg for under $200...
