We invite you to do side-by-side comparison of the two products. The 4-inch PocketDISH and the video iPod both are equipped with a 30 GB hard drive, but that is where the similarities end.
The 4-inch PocketDISH is a much more powerful media recorder that eliminates the need for multiple devices: it can store up to 15,000 songs, up to 300,000 photos or up to 120 hours of video*. Other benefits of PocketDISH include a viewing area that is 1.5 inches larger and a battery that lasts two hours longer when watching video.
But what is biggest advantage to choosing PocketDISH over the iPod? It's the cost of the TV shows. iPod users will have to pay about $45 to store and watch an entire season of Desperate Housewives®. With PocketDISH, the cost to transfer content is free, and, you don't have to wait a day to download the broadcast. With the ability to load content from DISH Network DVRs or by recording the shows, PocketDISH gives you much more flexibility to watch and enjoy the programming you love, and take it with you wherever you go. |
