I purchased this player almost a month ago and I could not have made a better choice.I work in a electronics store and had the option of buying virtually any player on the market but I like the fact that the screen is very large as a ratio of the player size and it's compact flash media, while not being as enermous as a 60Gb hard drive is very inexpensive and readily available.I purchased two 2Gb cards to supplement the included 512mb card that the X2400 comes with although I'll probably buy more since I'm finding more and more movies that I'd like to carry around with me.
As a media player the x2400 has a large easy to read display and a thoughtfully designed menu system. MP3 files, JPEGS and AVI files are all accessed through the "library" file and can be paused, rewound or fast forwarded through.The voice recorder with built in mic and some of the other more fluff functions I have yet to use but the quality of audio and video is excellent either through the built in speaker or through my headphones.
It is video recording though that really shows the x2400 off to full advantage.The SUPPLIED AV cables can be attached to a TV, camcorder, digital camera or dvd player and record any amount of programing up to the limit of your media card in real time.Most of my Dvd collection is encrypted and so DVD ripping software like Nero just sits and spins but with the x2400 I can record the DVD's into MP4s and watch them on the go.I did pay for them after all and I am glad to get the chance to actually veiw them somewhere other than my living room.
Pros:Light weight but sturdy construction, big, bright screen, good quality audio and video, awesome recording capabilities and cheap readily available media.
Cons: Batteries are replaceable but not yet available for purchase from RCA, screen and case are highly attractive to fingerprints and smudges, battery life is great on audio but video will take a battery from full to dead in 6 hours.Battery is supposed to charge from USB but mine does not

All in all this little guy is a fantastic sleeper product, seemingly overlooked in favor of higher capacity hard drive based players and the cheaper non-expandible flash units.This product is brand new as of the time that I write this review so only time will tell wether it will catch on and get the notice that it deserves.
